Course Description

Interested in learning how to analyze office and/or industrial real estate investments? This course was designed to take you from zero to hero in office and industrial real estate investing, After taking this course, you will be able to confidently analyze an office or industrial real estate deal, whether you're looking to buy a property on your own, invest with partners, or land a job with a top office or industrial real estate private equity firm.

This curriculum was specifically designed with the following people in mind:

  • Aspiring commercial real estate investors who want to buy bigger properties with less headache - Office and industrial properties are generally larger and often entail fewer headaches than a single-family home investment, a fourplex, or even a small apartment building. The longer lease terms and business-oriented tenant base allows investors to take a more hands-off approach to office or industrial than residential real estate investments.

  • Students or career switchers who want to land a job in office or industrial real estate private equity - This course will teach you the fundamental office and industrial product-specific skills and knowledge you won't be able to find anywhere else.

  • Passive real estate investors looking at investing in office or industrial real estate deals - Office and industrial deals can be extremely lucrative - long-term contractual lease obligations limit downside in the case of market corrections, operating income can be far more predictable than a single-family or multifamily real estate investment, and massive returns within short periods of time are very possible with lease-ups of large portions of a property's square footage. But as a passive investor, do you really know what you're getting yourself into? Is the property you are looking at a "good" deal? This course will teach you the main things you need to look out for when investing in an office or industrial real estate investment deal.

You'll also get a complete "done-for-you" office/industrial acquisition model included with your enrollment, so you can practice everything you've learned in the course in a full pro forma model. And with Udemy's 30-day money-back guarantee, you can try the course out completely risk-free.

See you on the inside!

Justin Kivel

Master real estate financial modeling, advance your career, and earn more money.

If you’re an aspiring real estate investment professional looking to break into the real estate investment field, or a current real estate professional looking to advance your career and increase your compensation, you’re in the right place.

My name is Justin Kivel, and I’m a real estate investment professional with a love for teaching. Throughout my career, I’ve worked on over $1.5 billion of closed acquisitions across multifamily, retail, office, and mixed-use properties. I’ve had the opportunity to work with some of the brightest minds in real estate investing and have spent almost a decade in the industry across private equity, finance, and brokerage roles.

Unfortunately, most of what I know today I had to learn on the job. Although great courses exist on Microsoft Excel and financial modeling, I couldn’t find a resource that was specifically tailored toward real estate investment professionals that would actually walk me through exactly what I needed to know to succeed in the real estate investment industry.

These courses are that resource.

After dozens of phone calls and coffee meetings with college students and aspiring real estate investment professionals, I realized that most people were asking exactly what I was asking when I was in their shoes.

Love the videos and breakdown so far, super easy to understand! But for some reason my excel is acting weird and show the return metrics as 0%. Any tips on how we can fix this? Thank you!

Le contenu est très riche et très détaillé. Il combiné à une très bonne présentation. Merci beaucoup!

By Daniel Rytel on 10/12/2021

The course is very good, but I wish there had been a chance to build a simple model from scratch, before moving on to the comprehensive model which is already completed. I also had an issue running this model on Mac. Came here after the Bootcamp to practice office specifically.

By Nilesh Budhilal Sharma on 8/13/2021

good explanation on topic. please include more case studies and show how we can actually calculate all these probabilities in real world with real data and what can be source for these data.

By Steven Lyon on 4/30/2021

Excellent course. Very well presented and Justin always responded to questions promptly and thoroughly. Would highly recommend.

By Jan Werthern on 4/5/2021

Hi Justin, after taking the courses Bootcamp Basis and Modeling Master Class I took this course and I found the other both better. The cash flow and the waterfall here are to superficial and complex to understand. I hope my next course commercial real estate lease modeling will be more detailed. The best is when you build a model from scratch... kind regards, jan

By Abdelrahman El-Diasty on 9/28/2020

The most comprehensive course for CRE new comers! - I would recommend hitting "The Commercial Real Estate Lease Modeling Master Class" before this one. Thanks, Justin!
