Real estate attorneys and guest lecturers will provide real-world examples via two common contracts used in the development process. The course "Global Real Estate Markets" has been added to the program this year, offering participants a greater understanding of the globalization of real estate capital and its impact on pricing, international capital inflows, and how to build a global portfolio.
To earn a certificate, participants must complete the following courses: Real Estate Finance: Fundamentals, Evaluating Real Estate Markets, Real Estate Finance: Advanced, Commercial Real Estate Development, and Global Real Estate Markets.
