Such a variety of projects seeking investment has crossed our desks in recent weeks and in increasing numbers too. From hotel and villa trophy assets in the south of France, to data centre sites in Virginia, to a bank-for-sale search on the US West Coast, to development plots on an as yet unspoilt, beautiful Greek island and not forgetting value add residential development opportunities in prime West London. Even a new self storage project in Geneva seeking investment. The list goes on and on.

Which begs the question...... is the broader real estate market really coming to life in a sustainable way? Despite the continued, fractious global scenario leading to the overriding negative sentiment currently at large, which has become something of a worryingly bad habit, especially amongst governments and their allied think tanks.  

Comments, suggestions, responses.... all welcome.
