Best RE Development Modeling Course

Hi all,

I'm currently a broker doing mainly residential sales and slowly transitioning to the commercial side. Long term I want to make the move to development and wanted to start gaining a better skill set. I was curious if anyone had any recommendations on an Excel modeling course? Thank you in advance!

I know ULI has a course but I haven’t taken it so I can’t speak to it. NAIOP may as well.

There’s also Adventures in CRE which has https://youtu.be/5L6m3lyztu8</a">this video of him building a development model.
