Description: In this course, students first understand the roles and responsibilities within a real estate private equity firm (including limited and general partner roles) and compensation and incentive structures typically seen in real estate private equity funding models. We focus on assessing risk and return in private real estate investments portfolios and analyzing relative valuations. Students learn how to construct a private investment portfolio, how to make buy and sell decisions from a portfolio perspective, and how to manage risks on behalf of fund investors. The course benefits from guest speakers addressing management and investment issues from both the limited and general partner perspectives. Students prepare an investment proposal and present the investment thesis to a mock investment committee.
