Abstract
Property portfolio managers seek to maximize returns and minimize risk, within defined parameters. Once allocation to broad classes has been determined, stock selection forms a crucial contribution to overall performance. However, stock selection is undertaken in a complex environment, with portfolio managers needing to make trade-offs between stock attributes. In this RICS Education Trust funded study, Allison Orr of the University of Glasgow and Cath Jackson of the University of Sheffield explored this essential stage in the decision-making process, to determine what their preferred property asset attributes were. What they found was that location and obsolescence were key factors underpinning stock choice, which suggests that their concern is for long term income generation.
