Yolande Barnes
Bartlett Real Estate Institute
Professor of real estate
My job is thinking things about real estate that most people in the industry aren't thinking - yet.
I have studied and commented on UK real estate markets for over 30 years and on world cities and global real estate trends for the last 9 years. My particular speciality in the past has been residential markets, regeneration, land and mixed use neighbourhoods. My remit now covers all aspects of the built environment and any trend affecting real estate markets across sectors and across the globe - but I still consult on development and place making, usually with a global flavour.
““I think for me, one of the biggest highlights is all the people you meet. Talking to them, you get to create deeper connections and seeing them face to face is very different from having them on Zoom. Bringing people together in the same room has been great for me personally and hopefully for many more people here too.”
