This unit is part of the foundation for the other property units in the Master of Commerce course. Students will develop an understanding of the property industry and its role in the investment context, as well as the collection and analysis of property data. The areas of markets, institutional property portfolios, the role of Government policy, and the controls that effect development will all be studied.

This unit is replacing unit CO811A. This unit introduces the concepts of investment analysis in the context of a study of the performance of individual created property investments.

The performance analysis of both direct and indirect property is also examined to assess the strategic contribution of property to an investment portfolio.

Property development is an extremely complex activity which involves a vast range of considerations over a wide range of inter related subject areas. It is probably the most complex activity undertaken by property people except perhaps 'active' property management which should incorporate property development activities. The aims of this unit are to provide a wide ranging study of the property development process including such considerations as the objectives, functions, roles and methods of operation of all those involved in the development process, the financial aspects of development, social considerations, taxation aspects, planning matters and others, and to provide students with the opportunity to develop their understanding of and their expertise in the subject.

This unit is focussed to develop the student's knowledge of finance and taxation with particular reference to the property industry.

This unit is replacing VA802Z - Income Property Appraisal. Develop understanding of theory and practice of valuation of retail, office and industrial property. Critically evaluate the various risk factors in retail, office and industrial property investments. This unit concentrates upon income producing properties. It forms an essential resource for property investment analysis and property development.

This unit places greater emphasis on the evaluation and development of feasibility studies for the purposes of selecting development projects, evaluating different options and making the decision as to whether to proceed to detailed feasibility study stage.

As a result of completing this unit, students will get a full understanding of conducting a property research project report to examine a property issue in detail.
