Block Real Estate has re-launched as a research and data-focused advisory business serving the living sector.
The business is putting research and data analysis at the forefront of its service with clients receiving direct access to one of Block’s senior advisers “ensuring experience, accountability and precision drive every piece of advice”.
By applying behavioural science, the business says it can “identify and deliver hundreds of marginal gains that enhance investment, development and operational performance for its clients”.
Ashley Layton, director at Block Real Estate, explained: “Real estate advice is changing, particularly in the operational real estate/living sectors, with research data analytics being at the forefront of all advice. The opportunity to grow a business and create a unique research and data focused advisory offer is very exciting, particularly with people of George [Adams] and Lee’s [Layton] calibre.
“The ‘beds’ markets are now at the centre of global real estate investment strategies. Our mission is to give clients the clarity and confidence they need to stay ahead, creating a unique offer that combines director level service with rigorous analysis and unique insights. By doing so, we help clients capture value in areas often overlooked.”
Lee Layton, director at Block Real Estate, added: “I’ve always prided myself on really understanding the data and deciphering the ‘signals’ from the ‘noise’, so I’m tremendously excited to be bringing this work to create a unique offer in the niche advisory space. We’re also taking some really innovative approaches, like our ‘Moments of Choice’ work, where we’ve partnered with experienced behavioural scientists to ensure that our clients control their own biases, whilst we leverage those of the counterparty. This deep understanding of thought processes is allowing our clients to achieve significant outperformance already.”
George Adams, director at Block Real Estate, said: ”I been taken aback by the response from clients to the relaunch of Block Real Estate. Our focused data led approach has certainly struck a chord with clients who desire the deep analytics but with the focused bespoke advice of a niche business. We look forward to continuing to work with our clients to achieve success for their various investment strategies and delivering our best-in-class, honest advice in an increasingly competitive space.”
