Great video, well produced! Question; do you offer coaching/advising for individuals looking to break into CRE? I've got 10 years of sales experience and am looking to transition to CRE, but would like to go about it in the best way possible. Thanks in advance!
Currently, this is where I am: 26 yo living in NYC and the head of marketing at another company I helped establish for the past 4 years. I have always wanted to pursue a career in Commercial Real Estate but took the opportunity to build a business. Now, I want that career change. I am a business school major from a university in Australia, willing to come in as an analyst and work for free or on an intern program just to get my foot in the door. Could someone spare any tips for someone in my position? (Yes, I am currently taking Justin's courses and watching his video religiously. On top of that, I am reading every report that is coming out from the major firms)
26 isn't too old for a career change by any means. Right now, the job market is tight even for experienced candidates, but networking will give you a huge leg up in the process. Aside from working through the Break Into CRE courses, you may also want to consider joining your local chapters of NAIOP and/or ULI to build a network of CRE professionals, reaching out to industry professionals on LinkedIn to try and set up some quick informational interviews to learn more about the industry and build connections, and tailoring your marketing experience on your resume towards the activities that would be required of you within a CRE analyst role. Graduate school could also be a great option for you at this point in your career, and NYU and Columbia both have excellent programs. Lots to consider and definitely some headwinds in the market today, but I absolutely don't think it's too late for you to make a change. Good luck with the search!
@@BreakIntoCRE Thank you, through a stroke of luck I just spoke to the vice chairman of CBRE and he gave me the advice to get my ARGUS certification and Real Estate license out here in NYC. Even though I most likely won't have to use either of these, it will show that I am committed to the industry and hopefully increase my chance of getting my foot in the door.
I’m a CRE agent, just back in the industry after a few years away. There is too much opportunity out there. If you want to be an analyst, go to CBRE or JLL .. if you want to be an agent, figure out a vertical and attack it. Retail, office, industrial, nnn, hospitality … the list is longer..
@@louklein7143 Howdy, Lou! Thanks for this tidbit; gives me lots of hope! I'm currently in insurance sales/relationship management (almost 10 years) and am looking to transition to CRE sales (specifically investment sales, NNN sales), but don't really know where to begin. Any chance we could link up via email? I'd appreciate the opportunity to pick your brain. Thanks!
Any questions you've been asked in real estate interviews that fall outside of the 3 categories mentioned in the video?
