by Dr. Stephen Akintayo·No reviews yet
Property remains one of the oldest and most resilient ways to build wealth, but the investor who only understands the street they live on is now competing with people who understand three continents. The Global Real Estate Investment Handbook was written for the second kind of investor, and for anyone ready to become one. Across twelve chapters, Dr. Stephen Akintayo takes you from the foundations of real estate as an asset class through to the strategies that separate profitable investors from busy ones. You will learn how to read market cycles and the economic indicators that drive them, how to choose between buy-and-hold, fix-and-flip, wholesaling, house hacking and syndication depending on your capital and appetite for risk, and how to tell a developed market from an emerging or frontier one before your money is committed. Two chapters are unusually personal. In one, Dr. Akintayo lays out the relationships, resilience and risk-taking behind his own rise, including the uncomfortable truth about gatekeepers that most investors learn too late. In another, he walks through how the multi-billion naira Gtext real estate empire was actually built across land banking, REITs, brokerage, development, office and rental income, joint ventures and commercial property, with the Dubai and United States models examined as case studies alongside real projects in Texas and Dubai. The back half of the book is where the handbook earns its name. There are chapters on personal finance, on traditional and alternative financing routes, on the four main valuation methods with financial, legal and physical due diligence spelled out step by step, on international taxation covering double taxation agreements, ownership structures, foreign investment restrictions, compliance and estate planning, on the day-to-day management of tenants, cash flow and risk, and finally on where the market is heading with PropTech, ESG, demographic shifts and alternative asset classes. Every chapter ends with a worksheet and an action checklist, and the appendices add a glossary of key terms, a resource directory and ready-to-use templates. Who it's for: Diaspora investors buying across borders, first-time buyers who want a system rather than a gamble, land bankers and estate developers, brokers moving from commission to ownership, and anyone advising clients on international property. Key details for the listing: 175 pages, 12 chapters, 35 figures and charts Worksheets and action checklists in every chapter Glossary, resource directory and templates included Covers Nigeria, the United States, Dubai and global markets Instant digital download
