- How To Become a GREAT Real Estate Analyst [3 Steps] // Whether your long-term goal is to run acquisitions at a major private equity firm, to manage a portfolio of 100 properties or more, or to go out on your own and start your own real estate investment or brokerage firm, the path to get there almost always starts at the analyst level.
A real estate analyst role is the entryway into some of the most coveted jobs in commercial real estate and is also a great training ground for entrepreneurship, and even though we talk a lot about how to LAND a job in commercial real estate on this channel, I think it’s ALSO worth taking a deeper dive into how to actually stand out when you DO land an analyst role, and what it takes to be successful in one of these positions.
And just like in any job, there are levels of analysts out in the field, and the quicker you start taking actions that put you at the top of that spectrum, the more quickly you’re likely to be promoted within your firm, or have the opportunity to take a leap into a leadership position at a different company.
And in this video, we'll walk through three things you can start doing right now to become that top-level real estate analyst (outside of just improving in Excel or ARGUS), and how you can significantly accelerate your career path up to the manager, director, or VP level in short order.

What characteristics have you seen in the most successful analysts you've worked with?
Extremely helpful
Think like an Associate. Take responsibility for all actions that are usually undertaken by associates. Keep on hammering through everything.
I love it - great feedback!
Building your network is huge, even at the entry level! Proving that you are proactive for eventual deal sourcing shows that you don't want to be an analyst forever and are worth the time investment for the company
Agreed completely - great comment!
Amazingly helpful, Thank you Justin, Please keep this up. Your guidance is appreciated
Great video! You're always providing a lot of value
I really love your videos! Can you do one on typical org structures of PE or investment firms? Maybe you have a video already and could let me know which one to watch?
I'm starting my internship in an investment and asset management role this summer. Thank you for your tips!
Thanks for all your videos Justin, always on point. I am looking to take my analyst role in investment sales to the next level. I know you have experience in brokerage as well, it would be awesome if you could do a video on some sell side brokerage advice!!! Greatly appreciated!
I'm still a college sophomore that's really interested in CRE acquisitions, and videos like these are super helpful keeping me in the right mindset! I wouldn't even really know what CRE is if it wasn't for all of your videos, so thanks!! Looking forward to signing up for the academy soon.
Great to hear, Shubham! Looking forward to having you in the program!
Amazing content!!
Very good career advice, even outside CRE! ;)
Thank you so much for this concise video..as a newbie in the field this helps me know what key metrics to focus on and help understand the so what of the data analysis. Much appreciated 👍
Well explained.
I do residential real estate, so the financial modeling is definitely different. I’m curious, How has the pandemic effected your analysis with commercial?
Most have been laid off with pandemic as commercial has taken such a hit. Although best transition is into PE
Are you able to do a video on what to expect when you start as an analyst? Day 1, what are some things you’ll do, expectations. Are you expected to put together a full property analysis day 1? Is there any type of training? Week1? Month 1? Etc etc… thanks! Just joined the academy looking forward to it.
Actually I just found a video from 2 years ago, thanks.
Which video?
Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Could a seasoned real estate agent with 3-4 years of success break into the analyst role?
Where can I look to hire a top performer analyst?
You misspelled Jordan in you thumbnail… lol
Haha I don't disagree!
Numbers to a story...hmmm are you a former student of Aswath?
Do a JORDAN Of Analysts! :-)
Haha!
Lebron is much more well rounded (Still extremely skilled in those well rounded accolades). That's the type of analyst you wanna be.
@@Ali-ld8wp Haha!
@@BreakIntoCRE I'm a Chicagoan who lived all those Jordan years so couldn't resist - Haha! As a CRE broker I truly enjoy watching your videos and gathering the many nuggets you share. I too agree on mentorship and am fortunate to have had three outstanding mentors for my first six years as part of a team and now them, plus directors whom I can truly consider friends inside and outside of CRE. All the best, and keep up the great work! Cheers from Chicago!
@@maddogg1978peru MJ will always reign supreme - the push-off on Bryon Russell in the '98 finals was a highlight of my childhood. Great to hear you're finding the videos helpful and thank you for the support!
