Location
Location is one of the most important factors that can affect the value of a property. A property's
location can impact its value in a number of ways, including:
• Proximity to amenities: schools, parks, public transportation, and other amenities are often more
desirable and, therefore, can command a higher price.
• Quality of the neighborhood: The overall safety, stability, and desirability of a neighborhood can also
impact the value of a property.
• Local market conditions: The real estate market can vary significantly from one location to another.
• Future development: A property's location can also be affected by future development plans in the
area.

This can include single-family homes, multi-family homes (such as apartments or condos), and
other types of dwellings. Residential real estate is typically classified according to the number of
units or dwellings that are contained on the property. For example, a single-family home is a
residential property with one dwelling unit, while an apartment building is a residential property
with multiple dwelling units.
In general, residential real estate is a type of personal property, as it is used for personal, rather
than commercial, purposes. As such, it is typically subject to different regulations and laws than
commercial real estate.

Retail
Retail real estate assets are commercial properties that are leased to retailers or
other businesses that sell goods or services directly to consumers.
These properties can include standalone retail stores, shopping centers, and
malls. Retail real estate assets can be owned by individuals, companies, or
organizations, and they generate income through the leasing of space to tenants.
The value of a retail real estate asset is often determined by factors such as its
location, the quality of the property, and the strength of the local economy.
