Emerging Market Real Estate Investment

“This book is a comprehensive and insightful overview of international real estate focusing on three of the BRICs: China, India and Brazil. I was pleasantly surprised to find useful market data and industry profiles for each of the countries that were very consistent with my first hand experience. The book has a wealth of information for the real estate investment analyst and practitioner and will be very useful to those seeking guidance on what to expect in emerging markets.”

“David Lynn has set the bar with respect to real estate investment in the most compelling emerging markets. Lynn provides a framework for thinking about highly dynamic markets characterized by youthful populations, extraordinary demand, capital inefficiency and, most importantly, aspiration. This book will enlighten institutional investors and entrepreneurs alike.  I look forward to another work by David Lynn addressing the frontier markets.”
