Lease Versus Buy Decision of Real Estate for Foreign Diplomatic Missions in Stockhom, Sweden
KTH Architecture and The Built Environment Department of Real Estate and Construction Management Master Of Science In Real Estate Management Thesis no. 396 LEASE VERSUS BUY DECISION OF REAL ESTATE FOR FOREIGN DIPLOMATIC MISSIONS IN STOCKHOM, SWEDEN Author: Supervisor: Ruby Bleppony Prof. Hans Lind Stockholm 2015 ABSTRACT Purpose - The purpose of this study is to present a general view on the real estate situation for diplomatic missions in Stockholm, Sweden, and thus identifying factors affecting the lease versus buy decision of their office space and residential facilities, examining the significance of these factors on their decisions. Design/methodology/approach - This paper takes an empirical approach, with questionnaire presented to the 105 embassies in Stockholm. The results were presented coupled with the experience of working in an embassy, bearing on the analysis of this paper. Findings - The results shows that other factors outweigh the financial factor, which has been the bedrock in the decision process to lease or buy real estate for diplomatic mission. The non- financial factor, mainly functionality in the aspects of security, size of the real estate facility and location were more significant in the decision process for DMs. The demand and supply dynamics in the local markets has been demonstrated as also being significant in the LVB decision for DMs, but not as strong as the functionality factor. On the other hand, factors such as bi-lateral relations / institutional factor and cultural factors that affect local market practices were rather insignificant in the decision process. Research limitations/implications - Even though all the 105 diplomatic missions were presented with the questionnaire, the outcome of the empirical survey is however limited to a few embassies and due to the small number of embassies involved in this study, there could be limitations on the statistical generalizability of results due to the small number of embassies involved in the study.

Things to See in Berlin Mitte (West)
Things to see in Berlin Mitte (West) If you can't join us for one of our guided Classic Berlin Tours, then please consider our self-guided version, or you could use this as a way to better understand what we will see and explore on the tour. This tour will take you about 90 minutes to 3 hours to complete, depending on how long you spend at each stop. WARNING: This tour differs slightly from the route and content of the guided tour. We recommend using this link to get U-bahn, S-bahn, walking, bike or any directions to the Hauptbahnhof. Be sure to read our post on how to navigate public transportation in Berlin. Click here for a fully interactive map. A - Berlin Central Station The huge glass building from 2006 is Europe’s biggest railroad junction – the elevated rails are for the East-West-connection and underground is North-South. Inside it looks more like a shopping mall with food court and this comes in handy, as Germany’s rather strict rules about Sunday business hours do not apply to shops at railroad stations. B - River Spree Cross Washington Platz outside the station and Rahel-Hirsch-Straße, turn right and use the red bridge with the many sculptures, to cross the River Spree. Berlin has five rivers and several canals. In the city center of Berlin, the Spree is 44 km (27 ml) and its banks are very popular for recreation. Look at the beer garden “Capital Beach” on your left! C - German Chancellery (Bundeskanzleramt) Crossing the bridge, you already see the German Chancellery (Bundeskanzleramt) from 2001, where the German chancellor works.

TAB G University-Provided Presidential Residence
TAB G University-Provided Presidential Residence BACKGROUND Over the last year, the Board leadership has discussed with President Ray priorities for the succession and smooth transition to OSU’s next president at the end of President Ray’s current contract, or later if there is a mutual agreement to extend his contract. One question identified for consideration was whether to re-establish university-provided presidential housing for the next university president. President Ray will continue to reside in his private residence throughout his presidency. The new residence should be in place prior to the selection of the next president for OSU. Oregon State has had a varied history of providing housing for the university president, including the original presidential house purchased in 1921 and a house on Brooklane Drive, which was sold in 2011. Re-establishment of a university-provided presidential residence can serve as a recruitment tool by addressing the difficulty of finding housing in Corvallis suitable for university events, and lodging for future OSU presidents and their families. Across the nation, a presidential residence is viewed as an asset to the university, serving as a gathering space for the community and a place for receptions, dinners, and informal events hosted by the president. In response to this need, Board leadership directed Board Office staff to research current practices nationally related to university-provided presidential residences and to investigate possible options for Oregon State. RESEARCH Board Office staff pursued a number of lines of inquiry on both current practices at other universities and options for Oregon State, as described below: Is university-provided housing still “typical”? The first item of due diligence was to validate whether university-provided presidential housing is still typical among universities and colleges.
