The Financialization of Latin American Real Estate Markets: A Research Companion provides an authoritative overview of the real estate asset class in Latin America with chapters covering Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Columbia, Nicaragua and Chile. The focus is on the current academic research and its relevance for practical applications and is divided into four key themes: real estate-related wealth and macroeconomics, housing price dynamics and affordability, financial crises and structural change, and non-residential real estate. The contributors cover the institutional context for real estate investment, the main players in real estate investment finance in Latin America, real estate appraisal and performance measurement, and real estate portfolios and risk management.The purpose of this book is to provide an informed overview of urban economics theory applied to financial real estate markets and capital investments practices. This analysis primarily focuses on the financial mechanisms using debt, mortgages and equity positions to operate these markets. The regional focus on Latin America reflects on the way in which cities follow similar patterns in the design of Housing policies and programs, the mechanisms to produce infrastructures and the growing disparities that the allocation of large investments are producing among its citizens. Real estate represents an increasingly significant global asset class and investors and researchers must understand its distinctive characteristics in the region. Providing a comprehensive reference for students, academics and professionals studying, researching and working in real estate investment, finance and economics, this cutting edge volume will pave the way for future research.
