Real Estate Investment Trusts

3 Credits · Level: Graduate

This course is dedicated to gaining a comprehensive knowledge of both the structure of public REITs and the market for them. A public REIT is a fully- integrated operating real estate company yet differs in many ways from the private sector structure. The public REIT’s access to capital, both debt and equity, is profound especially in relation to the private sector model. We will explore these differences and much more throughout the semester.
