Introduction
Paradox:
Demand for more figures, facts and
transparency on decision making
Intuitive decision making and information overload
perfect informationleads to
perfect rationality
bounded rationality

Major question
How is it possible to secure rationality within
Real Estate Management?
![Page 7: Securing rationality within Real Estate Management „Rationalitätssicherung im Immobilienmanagement“ Doris Grill Research Institute for Spatial and Real](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebc5503460f94bc4c8a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
State of the field
![Page 8: Securing rationality within Real Estate Management „Rationalitätssicherung im Immobilienmanagement“ Doris Grill Research Institute for Spatial and Real](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebc5503460f94bc4c8a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Rationality
“reason, common sense”
Max Weber (1921): Zweckrationalität: “purposive rationality”
Wertrationalität: “value rationality”
Business science: Predominant concept: purposive rationality
“As long as there is a good reason it is rational”
Implicit values: maximise utility, financial profit
Perfect rationality is a result of perfect
information not possible in reality

What is Controlling?
A controversially discussed question in literature and also
„In practice, people with the title of Controller have functions that are at one extreme, little more than bookkeeping and, at the other extreme, de facto general management.“1

Controlling
![Page 11: Securing rationality within Real Estate Management „Rationalitätssicherung im Immobilienmanagement“ Doris Grill Research Institute for Spatial and Real](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebc5503460f94bc4c8a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Concept of Controllingfrom Weber/Schäffer 1999
Definition: Controlling means „Securing the rationality of Management“
Rationality is defined as purposive rationality, measured by the efficiency of utilization of resources. Purposes are given.
Deficits in the rationality of the manager are defined as constraints in willingness and/or ability.
Controlling has to ensure the efficiency of utilization despite the deficits of the manager.

Real Estate characteristics
Attributes of Real Estate that challenge Controlling:
Different information needs and operating numbers in each life-cycle development, construction, (or acquisition), administration,
renovation, termination (or sale)
No market transparency and heterogeneity of the projects and objects Difficulties to find information and compare them
Problem of valuation
Predictability of events and budgeting is very difficult
Special know-how for different markets needed

1st paper
Securing management rationality with Real Estate Controlling
Requirements and problems for Real Estate Managers within the real estate life-cycle
Securing the management rationality defining the “Controlling concept”
Securing the rationality of the Real Estate Manager bringing the concepts together
![Page 17: Securing rationality within Real Estate Management „Rationalitätssicherung im Immobilienmanagement“ Doris Grill Research Institute for Spatial and Real](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebc5503460f94bc4c8a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Why qualitative research?
There is no strong theory to be tested
Quantitative research excludes social phenomenon beyond the questionnaire
Interest in the subjective view of the Real Estate Manager versus the subjective view of the Controller
Deficits in the rationality of the Manager (constraints in willingness and/or ability) can only be enquired indirect
![Page 18: Securing rationality within Real Estate Management „Rationalitätssicherung im Immobilienmanagement“ Doris Grill Research Institute for Spatial and Real](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649ebc5503460f94bc4c8a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

and Controller

Manager on the rationality of his/her decisions Expert: Important information for decisions Problem: Missing or uncertain data Narrative: Strategies to secure rationality of decisions
Analysis if the manager is willing and able to secure the rationality of his/her decision and how he/she does it in everyday-life

Hypotheses
The Controlling concept is only suitable to a limited extend and should be adjusted to the special needs of Real Estate Management
Existing Controlling is not able to secure the rationality of the Real Estate Manager
The Manager does not secure his rationality with the Controlling outcome but with other sources
A lot of decisions are also not justifiable with data and facts from other sources
