Commercial Banking RE Group

Hello everyone -

I am fairly new to the RE thread on this site and have read some interesting threads on real estate the past couple of weeks. I haven't seen a lot of information/threads/posts of people who work in the real estate group at a bank. I'm sure some people here have experience in this type of role, and I am curious how you liked it? Why did you move/stay? Is the end goal for you to get into an REPE?? Any commentary regarding a real estate role at a bank would be very insightful. Much appreciated,

I work as an analyst in the CRE group of a smaller, national bank. I really like it. There's a lot of structure, which I prefer. I came from private lending and the process here at least isn't as slow and bureaucratic as people say it is. There are a lot of resources at our disposal, for example, we employ an in-house economist that provides market insight regularly. My end goal is to probably end up on the credit side as I don't want to be a producer.

 

Great,

Thanks for the feedback. I believe the bank I am looking at has a lot of structure as well, which will be a nice change from where I am at now. There is a lot of ambiguity in all aspects of credit, which makes it difficult to focus in on every aspect voting members want to see.

 

I'm in CRE group at a regional bank right now and came here from a private lender as well.
