The article shows that the expansion of modern colonial cities in the first half of twentieth-century Netherlands Indies was a result of changing colonial domesticity. The rise of European families along with the modernized middle-class Indonesian and Indonesian-Chinese families opened the market for a new kind of urban living space. Decentralization of municipalities made possible stronger relationship between local government and city boosters, who had connection with the real estate and tourism industries. This changing class and economic relations in the city resulted in the formation of an urban institution that linked local governance, the real estate industry, and the production of urban colonial imaginaries that were modern and predicated on a fetish of white, European urban spaces. Such a phenomenon has not yet been fully explored in the context of colonial cities.

Deficiencies in strategic, administrative, productive or financial performance make many organizations more vulnerable to financial imbalance, generally characterized by insolvency and low liquidity. It is therefore necessary for management to have a constant and thorough knowledge of the economic and financial condition of its sector, which allows it to detect errors in time and apply the necessary corrections, predict the future and make better decisions. The financial analysis or diagnosis is the most effective tool to evaluate the economic and financial performance of a company throughout a specific exercise and thus, to compare its results with those of other companies in the same sec- tor and with similar characteristics. The evaluation of the indicators of the SME real estate sector is not carried out, and as a consequence there is no tool that allows an adequate decision making by the top manage- ment of a company. On the other hand, it is possible to evidence that the exogenous variables that affect the real state sector such as the devaluation of the peso against the dollar influence many indicators of the EEFF. The real estate sector in Colombia has had a contraction in the GDP in the order of -2.1% for the years 2017-2018, all this is due to excess supply, a phenomenon that occurs in both high and low income strata; there is a supply that is exceeding demand in the sector and this affects the sector significantly.

Real State

After the bubble burst, the real estate sector has become a very attractive market for funds or large investors. Financial entities were going through a very difficult situation and these opportunistic funds found the best time to invest in real estate. One of the most important funds in this market is Blanckstone, it has a large portfolio of assets and is considered the largest landlord in Spain. At the end of 2013, several indicators were favorable for the real state sector. However, since the last quarter of 2019, this recovery already showed signs of exhaustion and the contraction was greater this year since productive activity in most sectors was paralyzed. However, several authors agree that a market collapse will not occur, since they are since current conditions are better compared to those that occurred during the bursting of the bubble, for example the private sector presents a better financial position and there is no excessive building.
