This is becoming harder
|
Every business has moved online in recent years. ​ Even the fishmonger in your hometown has joined TikTok and does live streams while serving customers. ​ The same has happened in real estate. ​ We’re more prepared than ever, with more information at our fingertips. An investor in the year 2000 had less competition. They only needed to build a good relationship with one real estate agency, and they’d receive dozens of opportunities each month. Now, those opportunities roam free. Investing in real estate is getting harder. The only thing you can do is go back to the old ways and build strong relationships with local agencies. If you have time, the first option is always better.

Yesterday I told you about a KPI regime that seemed a horror story. Today, I bring you another that kills. Kills contract, I mean. I often tell people that vertical PPPs are not my cup of tea. Hospitals… I run away. Too complicated. Too political. Too high stakes. Take the wave of hospital PPPs in the UK during the 2000s. On paper, they looked brilliant: new facilities, modern equipment, long-term maintenance secured. But still… the KPI regime was written by bureaucrats with too much coffee...
Some PPPs die before they start.Others collapse under the weight of construction. And then there are those that rot from within — strangled by their own KPI regime. Take the Peterborough Prison PPP in the UK.On paper, it was innovative: the first privately financed prison with a focus on rehabilitation. The government loved the concept. The innocent believers in human nature wet dreamt about it. The financiers lined up.The operator thought they could make it work… if not, they would still...
