Starwood Capital Group vs. Ares REPE vs. Blackstone REPE vs. MSREI vs. General REIB

Would love to get a discussion going for these Real Estate opportunities coming out of undergrad. I heard SCG takes very small analyst classes and it is extremely difficult to get a return offer. Would love to get a comparison going in terms of comp, culture, prestige, MBA placement, etc. Please feel free to PM me if you want!

Nope, just generally really curious about each one. I would be completely stoked to get an offer from any of these guys. I am a sophomore so just waiting 

 

Definitely, did not mean to come off as cocky. I am just really curious to learn more about these places since I have been doing research and will be applying to them soon. Super pumped about real estate and would be over the moon to get an offer from any of these guys

Ive never understood this attitude on WSO. People come here to get unique insight they can’t get from googling prior to interviewing much less getting a job.

This isn’t a low effort post and seems like a genuine question.
