Abstract:	Until recently, occupiers have ignored the financial benefits real estate can add to the value of their firms. Corporate real estate (CRE) is now on the corporate agenda and CRE executives are being challenged by shareholders and senior management to employ best practice techniques to unlock the hidden value in the firm’s real estate portfolio. This paper offers a practical decision framework to allow this to happen and explores the potential for them and for real estate investors to capture this value. The paper is based on the author’s experience of advising occupiers and investors and his increasing knowledge of corporate finance principles.
