One of the most promising areas of future growth for the CRE industry is in the use of technology, specifically in data analytics. So says Joseph Ori, executive managing director of Paramount Capital Corp.
According to Ori, real estate data and analytics have been available for the last 20 years in the industry, however, advances in technology have now allowed for the growth of firms providing sophisticated data analytics that will make the acquisition, investment, appraisal and financing process in CRE, much more efficient and less costly.
One recent example he points to is Jones Lang LaSalle's, “Skyline” software that allows users to see various real-time data analytics of office buildings in 57 core office markets around the country. The site, he says, shows the building age, floors, occupancy, floor plates, owner, rents per sq. ft. and other data. There is also a color analysis of the building showing which floors and parts of floors that are leased, vacant and subleased.
