Masters in Real Estate in Canada- worth it?
Any feedback on masters in real estate programs in Canada? I know there are some MBAs with a focus on real estate- any specific real estate master programs you recommend?
Anything that gets you out of property management is worth it.
lol true!
Not in the industry, so take my advice with a grain of salt. Albeit in a situation with a lot of parallels.
Have you truly pushed yourself to network, and see what else is out there for you right now?
With 7 years experience, it's probably a bit of an awkward time to lose out on income and do a full time masters program. And then try to find a role with a proper senior comp package.
Also, I think Canada's economy is a bit different/worse than the US for people coming out of grad programs. I just don't really think the payoff is there for MBAs, etc in our country.
All that being said, I'd probably really consider how much the program would cost you (financially and otherwise), and then think if there's any way you could get to where you want to go without the expensive degree.

You got 6 figures in property management out of university?
Bump
I have a few friends who did the program - I don't think they used it as a transition but rather as an enhancer to move up within mid market firms. Since you're already at a place, why not talk to someone to see what it would take to move into a role without a masters?
I would agree.
Large scale companies are starting to recruit from these programs. The most successful candidates use it to progress to mid/large market firms.
