Today, sustainability, sustainable development and clean environment come to the fore worldwide. Consequently, the concept of sustainability has been introduced in project management. Sustainability issues have gained particular attention in the real estate sector. However, despite the fact that this sector has a huge impact on the environment and society, real estate projects are most commonly chosen taking into account only their risk and return, and a very limited number of indices and methods are available to assess their sustainability. Moreover, all of the existing indices and models for assessing the sustainability of an investment project take into account only three dimensions of sustainability—environmental, social and economic. Therefore, the novelty of this work lies in constructing a real estate sustainability index (RESI) relying on an additional sustainability aspect—i.e., a technological dimension. The developed sustainability index could be useful in evaluating and comparing real estate projects. It would also promote technological progress and investments in new technologies within projects as sustainability is also considered in a new, technological dimension. A research study was carried out between September 2020 and December 2020. Following an analysis of the literature and different sustainability-related standards relevant for the real estate industry, sustainability criteria were chosen and then grouped into four (environmental, social, economic and technological) categories. The selection and ranking of the most relevant sustainability criteria were performed through a survey. The index was compiled by applying multi-criteria decision making methods.

PurposeDigitalisation and AI are the most intensively discussed topics in the real estate industry. The subject aims at increasing the efficiency of existing processes and the institutional side of the industry is really interested. And in some ways, this is a breakthrough. This article elaborates on the current status quo and future path of the industry.Design/methodology/approachThe real estate industry is evolving, and parts of the business are increasingly being conquered by “proptechs” and “fintechs”. They have come into real estate to stay not because they discovered inefficiencies in the way one manages and does business with real estate, but because they come with an arsenal of new technologies that can change the whole game. The article discusses a path for changing the game in real estate.Findings“location, location, location” has now evolved to “data, data, data”. However, there is one essential aspect that must be considered before the latter can become the real value creator: the ability of market players to analyse data. And this does not mean being an excellent Excel user. The near future sees a solution called Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) meaning that the econometric world constructed decades ago has an expiry date.Originality/valueOne needs to delete two myths from their mind: data quantity is proportional to accurate insights and that bringing your data to a cloud will deliver you with all the insights your business needs almost immediately.

Abstract This study proposes a decision support subsystem in real estate management. Owing to the complex and multi-layered character of the discussed problem, only selected aspects of real estate management are discussed in this paper. The described system will play the role of a relatively simple and effective “assistant” which is expected to maximize the effectiveness of a decision and shorten decision-making time. The author has made an attempt to develop a subsystem as an adviser to subjects operating in the real estate management. This system was developed accounting for and combining the classical economic and real estate market theories with the implementation of non-classical methods in the data mining category in an effort to increase its effectiveness. The rough set theory has been proposed as a tool that supports analytical processes. Fuzzy logic best reproduces expert knowledge, and it is one of the most effective tools for solving “vaguely defined” problems. The given work is an attempt to prove the hypothesis that: the reduction of uncertainty in the real estate management decision-making process is possible by the development of the advisory system based on the rough set theory. The main aim of this work is to increase the efficiency and efficacy of entities operating in the real estate management, thus influencing the effectivness of the entity and management.

REGISTRATION UPDATE HOUSING FOR REMOTE SENSING AND TAX IMPACTSACTUALIZACIÓN DEL REGISTRO INMOBILIARIO POR SENSORIAMIENTO REMOTO Y LOS IMPACTOS FISCALESO cadastro imobiliário é fundamental para a gestão municipal eficiente, devido ao fato de os diversos setores da gestão pública usarem as informações territoriais para a tomada de decisão. Além disso, a importância notória do cadastro imobiliário é a composição da receita do município, notadamente, por meio do IPTU. Por isso, este artigo analisou a atualização do cadastro imobiliário de Montes Claros, a partir do loteamento Morada da Serra e dos respectivos impactos no IPTU. A metodologia para atualização dos dados imobiliários foi baseada em imagens de satélites de alta resolução espacial dos anos de 2005 e de 2014. Os dados extraídos das imagens e simulados para o cálculo do IPTU mostram que a desatualização traz perdas significativas de receita para o município, além de comprometer a definição de políticas públicas, uma vez que faltam informações sobre a infraestrutura e a ocupação da cidade.Palavras-chave: Cadastro Imobiliário; Montes Claros; Sensoriamento Remoto.ABSTRACTThe real estate cadastre is fundamental for efficient municipal management, due to the fact that the various sectors of public management use the territorial information for decision making. In addition, the notorious importance of the real estate cadastre is the composition of the revenue of the municipality, through the territorial tax and urban property. Therefore, this article analyzed the updating of the real estate registry of Montes Claros, from the Morada da Serra subdivision and the respective impacts on the territorial tax and urban property. The methodology for updating the real estate data was based on high resolution spatial satellite images of the years 2005 and 2014. The data extracted from the images and simulated for the territorial tax and urban property calculation show that the devaluation brings significant revenue losses to the municipality, as well as compromising the definition of public policies, since there is a lack of information about the city's infrastructure and occupation.Keywords: Real Estate Registration; Montes Claros; Remote Sensing.RESUMENEl registro inmobiliario es fundamental para la gestión municipal eficiente, debido al hecho de que los diversos sectores de la gestión pública utilizan las informaciones territoriales para toma de decisión.

The growing significance of the real estate market prompts investors to search for factors and variables which support cohesive analyses of real estate markets, market comparisons based on diverse criteria and determination of market potential. The specificity of the real estate market is determined by the unique attributes of property. The Authors assume that developing real estate market ratings identifies the types of information and factors which affect decision-making on real estate markets. The main objective of  real estate market ratings is to create a universal and standardized classification system for evaluating the real estate market. One of the most important problems in this area is collecting appropriate features of real estate market and development dataset. The main problem involves the selection and application of appropriate features, which would be relevant to the specificity of information related to the real estate market and create a kind of coherent system aiding the decision-making process. The main aim of this study is the optimization of  set of variables that were used to develop the real estate market ratings.  For this purpose, Hellwig’s method of integral capacity of information was applied. In this particular case, the method shows what set of variables provides information most sufficiently. The results lead to obtaining the necessary set of features that constitute essential information which describes the situation on the local real estate market.

The development of the real estate market is conditioned by a variety of endogenous and exogenous factors. Selected factors determine the local character of the real estate market, whereas others contribute to its classification as one of the main branches of the national economy. Rapid economic growth and the search for new investment opportunities have turned the real estate market into a highly competitive arena where various players carry out diverse investment strategies. Investors search for similarities that would enable them to develop risk minimizing strategies. Ratings are a modern tool that can be deployed in analyses and predictions of real estate market potential. This paper proposes a methodology for developing real estate market ratings, and it identifies the types of information and factors which affect decision-making on real estate markets. The following research hypotheses are formulated and tested in the article: 1) a real estate market can be rated in view of its significance for the local and national economy, 2) real estate market ratings support market participants in the decision-making process.

In the recent years, the Portuguese Real Estate Market has been increasing exponentially. This growth, has generated, in the real estate companies, the need to implement effective project management tools and frameworks in order to provide important metrics of budget control, deadlines and increase risk management. This study aims to understand the different causes of risks in real estate projects and to measure the risk factors that provoke deviations, in terms of cost, time and quality in the real estate market in Portugal. To measure these risk factors, a new methodology has been implemented, namely a new real estate risk plan model for predicting the risks inherent to new construction projects. This methodology aims to produce new and more accurate strategies and plans so as to effectively respond to potential risks and thus achieve the proposed objectives through the desired success. This methodology allows companies to effectively implement a project in a timely manner in order to reduce and mitigate the probability of risk failure based on risk management tools and techniques. The results of this case study have shown that implementing a risk management project is crucial to highlight and measure the risk of project failures and that Companies must implement risk indicators or triggers that give visibility to potential risks/losses that impact company objectives and, on the other hand, establish metrics that translate the organization’s appetite and tolerance into critical risks.
