Opportunities in Leisure Property and the Experience Economy

Opportunities in Leisure Property and the Experience Economy

One half-day Forum bringing you hard data, quality analysis and informed opinion: an essential event for all entrepreneurial investors and developers seeking higher returns and better growth, as well as their agents and funders.

Available Finance (sources and terms) – values (capital and income) – investors – demand (what and where) – lease terms (rents, rent reviews, lease renewals) – owner operators – planning and regulation – lot sizes and portfolios.

Leisure property, sports and health clubs, and new real estate trends in urban experiences can be great investments, delivering high incomes and substantial capital growth. The possibilities range from gyms, high street pubs and bars to indoor entertainment venues, Pilates studios and glamping – the range seems endless. 

The barrier so often? Access to finance. This half-day event will examine the challenges and – the big delivery – present solutions:   

• All the important issues in the current markets covered. 
• Short, information packed briefings and panel discussions. 
• All your questions answered (whether submitted beforehand or on day).

The Forum will explore:

• What constitutes Leisure Property, and opportunities in the experience economy.
• Calculating capital values and appropriate rents.
• Getting the lease/licence (if not owner occupier) right.
• How to structure rent reviews.
• Who is lending – sources and terms – and for how long, at what rate and at what proportion of value.
• Sources of high rate/high risk funding.
• ‘Health, wellbeing and leisure’ as high yielding ‘add-ons’ to hotels.
• Current trends and lessons from the market.
