A good high-level overview of market valuation and property analysis.
Very Great Education Process
It was very interactive, and Cedric is very informative and a great teacher.
really great teacher
Not only did I enjoy meeting new people and talking with them, but I also enjoyed listening to the perspectives of other individuals. In addition, I found that expanding my knowledge in commercial real estate was a fantastic way to reignite my enthusiasm for entering this industry.
I have loved every second of it!
I had an amazing experience at my first CRE Fundamentals Level 1 course. I learned so much from a great and knowledgeable industry professional. I left feeling more confident and excited to go into CRE.
Good Overall Experience
Great learning experience
Cedric was great!
The speakers are very active, clear instructions are given to solve problems.
Great content organization, coverage (especially for students from non-real estate background), and session engagement. Gained a good fundamental understanding and key steps in performing real estate market research, property research and valuation approaches. Thank you Cedric.
learned a lot about CRE
This course provided a valuable exercise in analyzing real estate financials. This enhanced both my analytical and strategic skills in real estate finance.
I gained so much knowledge and insight within the industry through this.
Cedric boils everything down to the principles that can be easily understood even by a novice like me. Thank you Cedric!
informative and engaging, lively session. bite-sized content was delivered together with multiple illustrative examples.
Although I gained fundamental knowledge about the basics, I still feel it is not sufficient, especially since I have no prior knowledge of commercial real estate or finance in general. I am grateful for this opportunity, as it provided me with valuable insights and a foundation to build upon. However, I believe that incorporating more advanced topics and practical applications, such as more recent and relevant case studies, would enhance the learning experience and better prepare participants like me for the complexities of the field.
