Fundamentals of Analyzing Real Estate Investments Course Content

This course is ALL about and ONLY about professional real estate investment analysis concepts and techniques. You can’t properly evaluate a real estate investment without looking at its numbers. So if you hate math and don’t like numbers, this course isn’t for you. Serious real estate analysis is probably not for you either. Analyzing real estate investments involves looking at the numbers and it’s easiest to do so with spreadsheets. But the good thing is you DO NOT have to build any of the models yourself. You just need to be able to follow along and then you’ll be able to use the models given in the course.

After taking the course, you will be able to confidently use professional real estate investment techniques, evaluate both residential AND commercial real estate opportunities, structure investments with business partners in a smart and equitable way via the waterfall framework, and know how to identify and mitigate investment risks.
