My First Internship (Real Estate Finance)- A Review
I've just completed my first internship ever at a prestigious RE Developer, multifamily side- privately owned. They have developed many Class A properties (podium style and wrap style apartments mainly) in the Houston area as well as nation wide. Though I know RE is not a primary focus on this site, I felt I would share since it is under the finance realm, and they call primarily on BB's, PF's, and IB's and other institutional investors for their equity partners.
I learned quite a bit, but maybe the most important thing I learned is how much more I have to learn.
Interships in Houston
As of right now I'm a rising sophmore searching for an intership. I had a couple of good jobs unrelated to finance that I was going to work this summer just to save up money, so I didn't look around. However, I'm now realizing that I really need some industry related experience now if I want to have better opportunities in the future.
I don't have any related experience, or even any finance classes yet. I realize I'm pretty late looking for something, but I just wanted to put the word out that I'm looking for an intership where I can gain some finance knowledge and make a little money this summer (or fall).
Do any of you guys know of some intership opportunities in Houston that I could check out?
