Hey Gang,
I have a real case study to be presented in front of a panel as the final stage of the interview process. I have only ever done modeling tests and I am not sure what exactly what to expect? I have not been given the case yet, but I wanted to get people's opinions on case studies for interviews, what should I expect, common questions?
It is for a LifeCo in NYC, and my background is primarily brokerage so how should I approach this putting on a lender "hat".

How is that possible?
My experience with these case studies is that they want to know how you think and are able to articulate your reasoning behind your answers. Hard to give you more help without knowing the case study but I would assume it would either be 1) pick an investment and explain why 2) choose between two investments and explain why.

Past case studies (real estate competitions)? (Originally Posted: 01/25/2015)
Hi, do any of you freaks know where I can find past case studies for RE competitions?More specifically real estate development competition.
I know Cornell and MIT both hold RE development competitions but I couldn't find the winning teams pitch/slides or anything really (I don't even know if this is possible). I'm asking because I'm going to enter a similar competition but at the undergrad level.
Big ups if u can link me or upload some useful resources
5 aspects that will be analyzed:localization, architectural structures, financing and returns, positioning and marketing
thank youuuuuuuuuuuu

Real Estate Development Help/ Case Study (Originally Posted: 03/05/2016)
Look at some comps of similar properties to what you are working on that have been demolished and constructed in NYC with close sqft.
Is this raw land or redeveloping?
It is redeveloping. Comps I have are only about pricing and PBSF. Nothing in dept to point of splitting into demolition, below and above ground construction costs.

Hi, any one knows what to expect in a real estate funds of funds case study excel test interview?
The investment role i'm currently in handles more direct investments/mezz debt financial modelling. Any one knows what else to expect in a Fof case study interview?
Thanks
