Construction and Development
Build financial models for construction and development projects. Both for-sale and for-rent product is covered. Save hours with pre-built workbooks.
For over 20 years, I've taught real estate finance and real estate capital markets at leading graduate university programs. The one thing that always tripped students up was construction finance and development models.
This course shows you the different methods that people use when building a development model. It especially focuses on how to model the financing of development.
By the end of the course you'll be able to build, audit, and review financial models for real estate development.
Enjoy.
