MF REPE AM Exit Opportunities
Hi all,
Happy New Year! I currently accepted an offer at MF doing RE AM (BX, KKR, Apollo) as an analyst and turned down acquisitions opportunities at other shops (Artemis, variety of REITS, etc.). As my start date is approaching, I feel like I made the wrong decision as being on the deal-side of the business is where my interest lies.
I feel like I got caught up in the prestige and high salary (almost a six figure difference including bonus). If I eventually want to be on the deal side, analyzing potential investment opportunities and being in a fast paced environment - how can I best position myself when I start?
Thank you in advance for all your advice!
Base+bonus below $100k seems kind of low in today's market
He said almost six figure difference between the two positions. So one position was probably $100 and the AM role was like $180, idk
Yeah sorry, my bad
Would either try to move internally (will be hard at a MF) or move to the acq side after a year or so at a smaller shop.
Can you share more precisely which shops you turned down for acq? Just curious, nothing more really.
You will be competitive for lots of roles but My opinion is to move ASAP.
There will be lots of roles looking for someone not fresh out of college but still very green. And you’ll be a top candidate for those. But once you have 2-3 years of exp, that’s a decent amount of AM experience. And associate roles looking for people with 2-3 years of experience will prefer people with transaction experience
Since when did Apollo and KKR hire RE AM analysts?
Who knows, but doubt it’s BX as I’m very sure they wrapped up AM recruiting fall 2021.
