Real Estate Development Post-MBA Compensation Package

Fellow monkeys,

After scouring everywhere with little results I figured I'd ask here. What does the post-MBA comp package at the top real estate developers look like (think Hines, Trammel Crow, etc.)?

  • Salary Range

  • Deal Participation

  • Signing Bonus?

  • Year-end Bonus? (Obviously variable depending on performance and firm performance but an average of this)

Any insight helps. Thanks guys!

For the firms you mentioned, right out of school ballpark is 90-110 base + 15-30% bonus. Getting a piece of a deal at exit varies per shop but would be on top of that as well. Also these are not NY/CA numbers.

That's a bit high for Hines, at least in my market, unless the person worked in development for a few years before getting his MBA and then came back
