Goal: Understand the basics of creating and updating your Investment Disposals
What is Investment availability?
This refers to the range of properties or assets currently available for purchase or investment by potential investors. These properties may include office buildings, retail spaces, warehouses, or other commercial real estate being marketed as an investment opportunity, offering potential returns through rental income, capital growth, or both. It highlights the current supply of investment options in the market.
What is the difference between Investment availability and general Commercial availability?
Normal commercial property availability is for occupiers, while investment availability is for those seeking to invest in property.
How can this be added within Kato?
When managing investment properties, the process is similar to handling normal commercial properties, with a few key differences.
⭐️ To begin, ensure that the investment sale option is selected when creating the property listing.
Once this is done, you can follow the same workflow as for normal disposals!
However, with investment disposals, you have additional options to input key information specific to investment properties.
This includes details such as lot size, investment grade, investment profile, income profile, and annual turnover.
These elements provide potential investors with a clearer understanding of the property’s financial and investment potential, helping them to make informed decisions.
By incorporating this information, you enhance the listing’s appeal within the investment market.
How the Creation Process Reflects in Kato 👀
Once the disposal has been created in Kato, it will be clearly labelled as an investment disposal, making it easy to distinguish between investment and non-investment disposals.
This clear labelling helps streamline the management of your property listings and ensures that investment properties stand out to potential investors.
The distinction improves organisation and enhances efficiency when managing multiple property disposals within the system as shown in the above example.
What is Market Status?
Market status refers to the current position of the property within the real estate market.
What Market Statuses does Kato offer?
On the Market ✅: This indicates that the property is actively being marketed for sale and is available for potential investors to purchase. It is listed and open to offers.
Off the Market ❌: This means the property is no longer being marketed for sale. It may have been withdrawn by the owner, sold, or taken off the market for other reasons, such as a change in strategy or timing.
Potential Unlock 🔓: This refers to the possibility of unlocking or realising additional value from the property. It typically suggests there may be development potential, planning permission opportunities, or a change in the property’s use that could significantly increase its value or income-generating potential in the future.
How This Appears in Kato?
Under the Investment Sale label, you can easily identify the market status of a property through the clear label that appears.
This label provides quick visibility, allowing users to instantly see whether the property is on the market, off the market, or has potential unlock opportunities, as shown in the example below.
This feature streamlines the process of tracking and managing investment properties within Kato.
