The Reality of Working in Real Estate Private Equity

The Reality of Working in Real Estate Private Equity // When I was first starting my career in commercial real estate, anything labeled "private equity" was very foreign to me, and it took a lot of conversations with people who were already in the industry to really get a good sense of what this actually meant.
And because real estate private equity is where a lot of people who want to break into CRE ultimately want to land, this video walks through what real estate private equity really is, the different career options available within this part of the business, and some things that you might want to consider before going this route.

Great work Justin. Can you make a video showcasing how fund/portfolio modelling is different to Asset level modelling ?
Thanks

[@Jack-hp6iq]

Would love to see this as well

[@BreakIntoCRE]

Great feedback - thanks for posting this!

[@CarlosPerez-ju4oy]

Hi Justing, great work as always. Could you please do some material covering valuation & advisory role and the transition from there to other roles / departments? Thanks.

[@jaredpelt]

Thanks again for another great video! Cheers

[@Yosalsafiesta]

Justin I just want to say thank you. I took many of your courses on Udemy and they help me tremendously. I am serious, I could have not have done this without your materials. Keep on with the good work!

[@nn_maps]

Great video! I'd be interested to learn more about Hedge Funds specialized in Commercial Real Estate by trading REITs mainly (Cohen and Steers, etc...)

[@Andrei-Lemeshevski]

Great info 👍

[@AlphaCREInvestor]

Excellent breakdown. More on PERE!

[@berkleybloodworth7421]

I think a great video idea would be to do a deep dive on the typical role and responsibilities an associate level position on the GP side would have during the due diligence process. What should an associate be expected to handle once a deal is sourced and the underwriting is complete but the transaction is not closed?

[@MegaRedemax]

Thank you very much! Was riveting to watch especially because I am searching for opportunities right now

[@BreakIntoCRE]

Really glad it was helpful - good luck with the job search!

[@mostimusic2616]

It’s funny that private equity RE companies have everything except private equality, so they need to raise it

[@Robert-Sacamano]

What do you mean

[@mostimusic2616]

I mean it how I say it

[@Robert-Sacamano]

@@mostimusic2616 So by “private equality” you mean more diversity on the teams that matter ?

[@baore2422]

Can you make a video on the Cortland raid/Realpage investigation?

[@barrettsmith280]

Great content as always Justin, thank you for making these videos they are all very helpful!

[@BreakIntoCRE]

Thank you!
