It's time for Real Estate courses @WallStreetOasis.com
I've noticed an ever increasing number of activity in the forums about real estate. Are any RE courses in the works? I think it would be cool to integrate RE more onto this site.

RE modeling, REPE, Development, Investment Sales
To be honest - there’s a lot of REPE modeling out there and don’t see that to be unique since many websites offer it. What about taking the more entrepreneurial route with development/financial modeling and construction courses? Thoughts?
The one thing I struggled to find online back when I was interviewing for CRE roles, were courses that had enough interview style modeling exams. Most of the courses I did were a “follow along as I build a MF acquisition model” type of course, with maybe 1 exam at the end of the course.
If I could’ve taken a course that had a bunch of modeling exams (the course gives the assumptions, then has a walkthrough of how to solve it) across multiple assets, both acq and dev, that would’ve been an immediate buy for me.
yeah, I've heard of them and I've heard of REfm as well... who would be the best person to teach this content? RE is such a massive asset class, it is not an easy task to 1. identify what to teach (what has most dramatic impact that we could deliver and add the most value) and 2. who are the right people to teach each of those modules (or 1 person)?
If you know someone that you think would be a great fit for this that can dedicate 10hrs+/week consistently, pls PM me or email me (Patrick at wallstreetoasis.com)
thank you! Patrick
REFM is good if you already have a background in RE modeling, but the models and training material offered by them were crazy hard and overwhelming when I first started out trying to learn everything. I honestly wasted every dollar I spent with them since they were of no use to me. I ended up buying every single one of Justin Kivel's courses on Udemy and learning all the basics (and some advanced material) from him. He also runs the site Break Into CRE. I would fully recommend reaching out to him.
I think Adventures in CRE is great and has a high quantity of quality content, especially with the pay what you can model. I also think the various industry groups (ULI, NAIOP, etc.) have high quality online learning as well. NAIOP classes are free right now.
Argus training is limited everywhere as Altus holds their product pretty close to the chest.
What I do think is missing from the market, are comprehensive guides to A) breaking into the industry and B) advancing in your career similar to the guides that exist for undergrads looking to become investment bankers and investment banking analysts looking to make the move to the buyside.
