Is data the most valuable commodity for UK real estate investors? With Gavriel Merkado, CEO and founder of leading proptech disruptor, REalyse, and Anna Clare Harper The Return: Property & Investment Podcast

    • Investing

Data has been described as more valuable than oil. But not all data is created equally. Huge risks arise if you don’t have the right data, and you don’t use it correctly in property investment.

So how do you get it right, at a time when data collection seems topical, controversial and indeed essential for modern businesses?

Gavriel Merkado, CEO and Founder of REalyse, leading UK real estate data and proptech disruptor, joins Anna Clare Harper to discuss the value of data - including how successful investors are using it, and what the rest are getting wrong.

Gavriel is an expert in using data and analytics to drive the right investment decisions, with a strong background in quantitative analytics, hedge funds, trading and equity broking before making the shift to real estate, including at Quintain and Essential Living.

Highlights of this episode include:


What data is actually valuable, and how it should be used in real estate

The rapid evolution of data, and what this means for property investors

Common mistakes investors make - that cause them to lose money and waste time - and the four characteristics your data needs

Using data in a property crisis
