How are Real Estate PE interviews different from traditional?
I'm interesting in recruiting for real estate private equity. I am wondering how these may differ from traditional interviews, is it completely different modeling or are there some overlaps?
Is there a study guide or modeling course that would be helpful?

Great question! Real Estate Private Equity (REPE) interviews do have some differences compared to traditional interviews. While there are overlaps in terms of financial knowledge and analytical skills, REPE interviews often include a focus on real estate-specific knowledge and modeling.
For instance, you might be asked to model a real estate deal, such as a multifamily home, warehouse, or corporate office. These models are typically not overly complex, but you need to be quick with Excel. The tests usually last from 1 to 2 hours.
In terms of preparation, the WSO Academy offers a variety of courses that can be helpful. The most popular program is the WSO Elite Modeling Package, which includes 6 courses to Modeling Mastery. This package covers a range of topics including Excel Modeling, PowerPoint for Finance, Financial Statement Modeling, LBO Modeling, M&A Modeling, and Valuation Modeling.
Additionally, the WSO Academy offers Interview Prep Courses, such as the IB Interview Course and the Private Equity Interview Course. These courses can provide you with a wealth of questions and modeling tests to practice with.
Remember, preparation is key! Good luck with your journey into REPE.
