Commercial Real Estate Analyst/Appraiser
Does anybody have some advice/opinions/connections with getting involved in Commercial Real Estate Sales or possibly an analyst position?
For example, determining cash flow on an apartment building to pitch to a potential investor.
My dream job/career would involve finding good deals that appreciate and cashflow for investors until I can afford to one day do so myself.
I'm super interested in the more RE specific aspect of things , Cash flows, pro formas, cap rates, investing etc. I want to do this because I believe I need two things to succeed in RE investing. First, I need the specific knowledge of a targeted market. I hope to gain this by getting a job in the industry where I'm doing valuations on a daily basis. Secondly, I believe I need capitol, or the ability to raise capitol, to get in the game for myself. So I'm figuring while I get a job in the industry, while getting to know a market, I can save money and network with private players.
Any opinions?
Thanks!
