Real Estate Entrepreneurship

0.5 Course Units

This half-semester course focuses on the entrepreneurial aspects of the real estate investment business. The course structure is designed to track the life cycle of real estate investing with different units focusing on discrete stages of the deal process from sourcing, financing, and capital raising through asset management and property disposition. At each juncture, granular attention is paid to real-life deal making skills, all from the perspective of an entrepreneur operating with limited resources in different economic environments. As part of the class, students will analyze deals, models and investment documentation that, once assembled and retained, will arm them with a comprehensive "deal tool kit" that they can continuously reference as they engage in real estate transactions throughout their career. At the end of the course, time will be allocated to discuss the trajectory of entrepreneurship and how it corresponds to careers in the real estate business.
