Programme

10 February 2016, Sokos Hotel Viru conference center

Session I: Estonian real estate market in the context of Nordic, Baltic and European markets

9.30 Comparative analysis of commercial property, signs to watch in 2016, Partner and Sworn Auditor at Deloitte Estonia

Veiko Hintsov

Based on surveys and market analysis, we will shed light on the big picture and significant trends of Nordic, Baltic and European markets, compared to Estonia’s commercial property market. Where are the investors heading? Which markets are the most attractive? What do international analyses speak of the possibilities in Estonia’s real estate market?

10.00 Comparative analysis of residential property and forecast for 2016, Analyst at real estate bureau Uus Maa Kinnisvarabüroo

Igor Habal

It is generally recognised that residential property is the indicator that also predicts changes in the commercial real estate market. The price hikes of Estonian residential property have been among the highest in the entire Europe. What happens next? The market analysis presented by Igor Habal at the recent Äripäev Administrative Management Conference stood out and received accolades from the audience. This time, Igor Habal will speak of Estonia’s real estate market in the context of neighbouring markets and European trends.

10.30 Äripäev survey: who owns land in Estonia?

The survey, conducted exclusively for Äripäev Real Estate Conference, examines the background of the owners of properties suitable for both agricultural production and real estate development.

10.45-11.15 Networking: participants are warmly invited to make business appointments with developers, financers, construction companies, sellers and buyers of real estate.

Session II: Trendsetting development projects

11.15 Where will the heart of the city be?

Will Porto Franco and the Rotermann quarter be the calling card of future Tallinn? Or, will Ülemiste City assume the title instead? As of now, the first of the two projects is yet only existing on paper, but has already acquired a special significance, being both admired and disliked. The Rotermann quarter has gone through rises and falls in the past 10 years – having now become one of the most cherished residential environments in Tallinn, it has also faced empty retail spaces nit so long ago. All the while, Ülemiste City has been developing in a robust manner and become a true center of business and innovation., CEO of the Rotermann quarter; Andrus Kaldalu, Supervisory Board Member of Mainor Ülemiste; and Endrik Mänd, Chief Architect of Tallinn.

The topic will be addressed by Martin Ühtegi

11.45 What is the price of emotions? Head of Marketing at Endover Kinnisvara

Kristel Laud,

Endover Kinnisvara is known in residential property market for its unique development projects, such as City Residence on Tartu road, 47B Lofts in Uus-Kalamaja, the historic Villa Soans in Kadriorg, and Alfredi Maja in Kassisaba. Developments like these write their own history in the market. How can one achieve this status? How much do emotions influence purchase decisions and price?

12.15 What is the price of saving energy?, chairperson of energy-efficient developments

Kristjan-Thor Vähi

Does an energy-efficient house really pay off? We will take the standpoint of investor-buyer-developer to see how investments in energy efficiency influence the sale of the project: price increase vs client’s willingness to pay. How has the market received low-energy houses? Passive house is a wonderful thing, but will it also be economically beneficial? Can we reasonably speak of active houses in Estonia?

12.45-13.45 Lunch

Session III: Trends that create development projects

13.45 Rail Baltic: which regions expect to see property prices increase or decrease?, Head Specialist of Planning at Rail Baltic

14.00 Tallinn-Helsinki tunnel: what are the chances that it will actually happen?

Kaupo Reede

"If we build Rail Baltic and leave it unconnected to Helsinki, we will only be half-way there,“ Kaupo Reede has said. A survey published earlier this year set the Tallinn-Helsinki tunnel’s price tag at EUR 9-13bn, and yet, this utopian-sounding idea is beginning to take shape.

14.15 State and property

Äripäev asked the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communication, the Ministry of Social Affairs, and the governmental asset manager Riigi Kinnisvara AS three questions:What is the public procurement demand in 2016?What are the plans with social housing projects?What is the solution for refugee residences?

A look into the back yard of crowd funding. Crowd funding projects kept amazing the public last year: available projects were bought in minutes, the yield of the investments stands at 48%, small investors take real estate deveopments by storm. What is the background of this success story? How many development projects are actually discarded? Do skeptics have a point? How can one choose intelligently?
