RE Investing Books
Hey guys,
Thanks to WSO, I was able to get a MF REPE for SA2024. I was wondering what books one would recommend to read for RE investing other Peter Linnemans. Thank you in advance!

Didn’t sign with Ares….
Agreed but just for RE. MF for Credit though
Congrats on the role man. Couple of books that I would recommend to help prepare:
The Real Estate Game by William Poorvu
- good, digestible high level read that focuses more on the rationale and inputs to consider for different real estate investments, as well as general sector advice
Am I being Too Subtle by Sam Zell
- Autobiography by Sam Zell, billionaire developer who founded the REIT EQR
- Has very good insights on his investment philosophy, why it's better to be a contrarian in the space, etc.
The New Kings of New York by Adam Piore
- Goes into the development history of the Manhattan skyline and the key players involved. Very interesting, light read
Real Estate Titans by Erez Cohen
- Interviews a wide variety of CRE professionals across dfferent roles, highlighting what made them successful in their individual approaches
I'm holding off on recommending any more technical/granular CRE books given that you already read Linneman - that should be more than enough to prepare you for valuation theory and the development and investment process. Cheers
