RE Estate Interview Prep

I am currently a real estate development analyst and am looking to make a move to looking to make the jump to REPE / Acquisitions. I would like to hire a private tutor (am willing to pay ~80+ an hour to get some help modeling and am willing to pay someone up to $600 for a day of drilling through models/case studies/interview prep.

It would be great if the person holds either an Associate or VP role with a larger REPE firm focused on Acquisitions. Please PM me if this would be of interest to you, happy to negotiate what this arrangement would look like. Thanks all!

This seems like a waste of money that won't yield you better results than what you can achieve yourself. Honestly just spend a couple hundred bucks on a real estate financial modeling course such as the one in BIWS. Watch the videos if you have 0 real estate finance knowledge. Once you have the real estate finance knowledge and understand the concepts, then open a blank excel workbook and download the most complex excel model that the course has to offer and literally recreate that model from scratch on the blank workbook and reference the template as many times as you need to. At first your goal is to just memorize all the line items and formulas, but as you keep practicing this incredibly mundane task over and over again, it will start to make more sense (both the concepts and the excel formulas). Even if you hire someone to tutor you, they can't practice or memorize the model for you. There's not shortcut around practicing it

 

Thank you for the advice. Do you recomend any REPE publications/articles I should read? I have an interview at blackstone in a few weeks. I also work for a pretty prominent RE developer now so I am not too unfamiliar with modeling.
