Digitalization and PropTech: the revolution has begun
The adoption of technology in real estate—known as PropTech—is changing how properties are bought, sold, and managed. From augmented reality for virtual tours to smart contracts and blockchain for secure transactions, the entire real estate cycle is becoming more efficient, secure, and accessible.
Investing in PropTech startups or in markets accelerating their digital transition presents a significant opportunity.
New housing models: co-living, build-to-rent, and senior housing
The evolution of housing needs—especially among young professionals and seniors—is driving demand for more flexible and specialized living models. Co-living responds to the desire for urban flexibility and community, while build-to-rent developments offer stable returns in urban settings. Senior housing is also gaining traction as a fast-growing niche, driven by an aging population.
Sustainability and ESG: the green imperative
Green buildings are no longer a choice—they are a necessity. Stricter regulations and growing investor awareness are making sustainability a core criterion for asset evaluation. Energy-efficient properties and ESG-certified projects are attracting capital and ensuring long-term resilience. Investing in LEED- or BREEAM-certified buildings or in energy renovation projects is now a concrete and promising opportunity.
Emerging markets and decentralization
The pandemic has accelerated urban decentralization, sparking growing interest in secondary cities, digitalized rural areas, and developing countries. Remote work has reduced the need to stay close to major hubs, redirecting investment flows toward less saturated markets with high potential. To invest effectively, identifying emerging locations with favorable demographics, growing infrastructure, and investment-friendly policies is essential.
Data and Artificial Intelligence: the competitive edge
The use of big data and artificial intelligence enables investors to analyze trends, anticipate market fluctuations, and optimize investment strategies. Those who integrate these tools into decision-making processes will gain a clear competitive advantage. Among the best opportunities in this field is the adoption of advanced analytics platforms for due diligence and asset management.
