Help pls!!!
I don’t know a shit about RE, (i’m applying for IB) but I have an interview with a VP of RE and I should still ask the some questions.. what would you ask him?? Without sounding boring and referring too much to covid or recession maybe
Here are a few that come to mind. If you can research some before hand, all the better, and may lead to a better conversation.
Do they invest debt or equity? It could be both, depending on size of the company.
What asset class(es) they deal with (office, retail, industrial, multifamily, hotel, medical...)? If they specialize in a certain class, or classes, inquire as to why. This will help understand their investment strategy, so that you can see a bit beyond just the nuts and bolts of financial modeling.
What's their risk-return profile? Core, Core Plus, Value Add, or Opportunistic are the terms you'll hear often with real estate professionals. Some folks like these terms, some hate them. Core is somewhat equivalent to 'Income' stocks, Core Plus to 'Income & Growth', and Value Add and Opportunistic are similar to 'Growth', with opportunistic being the riskiest.
These are just a few of the basics to know about their real estate investment group. You can dive in deeper from some of these questions.
Not to sound like a dick, but bruh, this forum has posts detailing the questions you should be asking already. Everything necessary to spoon feed you about RE is here.
