PREA’s Mission
Founded in 1979, the Pension Real Estate Association (PREA) is a
non-profit trade association for the global institutional real
estate investment industry.
Its mission is to serve members engaged in institutional real
estate investment through the sponsorship of objective forums
for education, research initiatives, membership interaction and
the exchange of information.
PREA’s Membership
• PREA currently lists over 702 corporate member firms worldwide
representing public and corporate pension funds, endowments,
foundations, Taft-Hartley funds, insurance companies, investment
advisory firms, REITs, developers, real estate operating companies and
industry service providers
• Investor members hold more than $2.29 trillion in assets, of which $241
billion is invested in real estate related products
(according to respondents to PREA’s Investor Report, August 2012)
• PREA’s core constituency is its investor members who play a significant
role in leading the organization through the Institutional Investor Council
and its Executive Committee
PREA Education
PREA exists to serve and educate its members in the global institutional real
estate investment community

community
PREA Education
Recognizing the importance of cultivating the next generation of real estate
leaders, PREA has long been a resource for students and those new to the
industry
• Since 1994, PREA’s scholarship fund has awarded over $550,000 to 192
students studying real estate and related academic fields
• Additionally, PREA provides an annual grant to the Robert A. Toigo
Foundation which provides support and services to minority students
pursuing business careers

PREA’s Industry Commitment
In fulfilling the association’s mission, PREA serves as a steward for the
industry, dedicated to seeking and promoting best practices, and standards of

information standardization and transparency necessary to compare real
estate with other asset classes
• PREA and its co-sponsor NCREIF, maintain their long-standing commitment
to the Standards as they continue to evolve and reflect the industry in
which we operate
REIS standards
Valuation
Required: All accounts
VA.01: Valuation policy statement (Annually): In addition to the required disclosures under
GAAP for fair value measurements, the Account Report must contain a statement that the
Account’s real estate investments are valued in accordance with the REIS Property Valuation
Standards, stated below:
A written Valuation Policy, including methods and procedures, must be maintained and
consistently applied. Changes to this policy must be disclosed through the next annual
reporting period. The policy must include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Internal hierarchy of appropriate management levels responsible for the valuation
process
Process by which external appraisals are conducted
Frequency of valuations
External valuer and/or investment manager selection process
Role of USPAP in the valuation process
Debt valuation procedures
Minimum scope and documentation requirements for both external and internal
valuations
Value acceptance and dispute resolution procedures
Direct real estate investment fair values must be reported on a quarterly basis. Quarterly
valuations can be completed either internally or externally and approved in writing. This
requirement supports quarterly production of the NCREIF Property Index.
a. External valuation requirements
i.
Each direct real estate investment must be valued by an independent, professionally
designated property valuer or appraiser at least once every 36 months. Beginning
January 1, 2012, the external valuation requirement is at least once every 12
months unless client contracts for a less frequent appraisal, but no less frequently
than every 36 months.
ii.
External appraisals completed by independent third-party appraisers must be
performed in accordance with USPAP for U.S. investments and either the
International Valuation Standards as set forth by the International Valuation
Standards Committee (IVSC) or the appropriate authoritative standard in the
country in which the property exists.
iii.
Material differences between external valuation and the valuation used in
reporting, and the reason for the differences, must be disclosed.
b. Internal valuation requirements
i.
Scope must be sufficient to demonstrate that the value of each property has
been appropriately determined. The scope should include, but not be limited, to
the following:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Use appropriate, established valuation techniques
Demonstrate independence of valuation process oversight, review, and
approval
Contain sufficient documentation for auditors to re-compute the
calculations during audit
Reconcile any significant variance from the previous external appraisal

Timely Recognition
of Development
Profit:
A Fair Value Perspective
Timely Recognition of Development Profit
In the Open-end Fund world it is important
that the periodic pricing be accurate as of
the date of value. Participants buying in or
selling out of a fund should not be
advantaged or disadvantaged.
Assets under development should reflect the
current value of not only the capital
expended to date, but also recognize the
incremental entrepreneurial effort earned to
that point.

• Risk profiles will vary from project to project
• The impact of each depends upon that
particular factors magnitude and duration
• “It ain’t over ‘til it’s over” (Yogi Berra)
• The unearned profit must not only be sufficient
to mitigate the remaining risk factors, but
provide enough incentive for the market

HISTORY OF REIS DEBT GUIDANCE
In 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair

beginning after 11/15/07.

GROSS VS. NET APPROACH
Holders of the gross view
o Take a rules based implementation approach to ASC Topic 820
o Argue that there are two units of account (one for the asset and one for the liability).
o Value the liability (obligation to make a stream of cash payments), assuming a
hypothetical transaction where the reporting entity pays a “credit equivalent” market
participant to assume the liability (the liability continues, it is not settled). The amount
paid in such a transfer is dependent upon changes in market conditions since the
issuance of the liability.
o Use different market proxies for the sale of assets and the transfer/issuance of
liabilities and these markets have different participants, requiring these elements to be
separate units of account
o Value the asset on a free and clear basis

Holders of the net view:
o Take a principles based implementation approach to ASC Topic
820-a principles based standard
o Argue there is one unit of account
o Value the liability in the context of its impact on cash flows to
the net equity position
o Believe the market proxy is trades of equity positions in
levered investments.

NET METHODOLOGY
Appendix 3
Market Participant Behavior-Net Method
Under the net view, the fundamental question asked by
a market participant when valuing an existing debt
instrument is, “How will the assumption of this loan
impact the projected return on my investment relative
to obtaining a new loan at current market terms?”

And Floors
Sample Comparable Leveraged Transaction
In August 2012, ABC Real Estate Partners purchased Tower Square,
a 120,000 Square foot Class A office building in Washington, D.C,
from XYZ Partners for $121,392,500. The property was built in
2006, and was 100% occupied with 34 total tenants at the time of
sale. The property was subject to $66 million in debt at 6.19%,
prepayable in November 2017. The property sold encumbered by the
debt, which the broker indicated was a negative influence for
potential buyers. The property sold at a 6.30% capitalization rate
after 150 days on the market. According to the broker involved, and
based upon alternate bids received, he believed the sale’s
capitalization rate was influenced by 25 bps due to the debt. At a 25
bps influence, the impact of the debt would be 54% of cash
equivalency.
MARKET DEBT CONCLUSION
Based upon the subject attributes and the LTV of the loan, a market rate of
approximately 190 to 250 basis points over the comparable term treasury is
appropriate as of the valuation date. The current comparable term treasury
stands at 0.55%. Therefore, the market debt rate for the subject would be
approximately 2.45% to 3.05%. However, given realistic lending floors, the
current market debt rate for the property is estimated to be 3.50%.
CASH EQUIVALENCY CALCULATION
The following chart presents our cash equivalency adjustment calculations. We have
added to the cash equivalency calculation the costs of a new loan only for
substantially above-market debt, as the assumption of existing debt would save the
buyer incurring this expense, which would lessen the negative impact of abovemarket debt. We have not, however, added these savings to positive cash equivalency
adjustments. We have assumed that if the current loan were replaced, it would be
interest-only for the remaining term.
