Transition from FICC Trader(BB) to Real Estate Investment companies
I'm trying to move to Real Estate Investment industry from FICC trader. (I'm currently working as a trader in FICC of a well-known US bank, and I'm a VP and 33 yrs old.)
I know they are totally different industries and different skillsets are needed to move, but I really want to break into real estate investment industry.
What would be the best way to move to the industry? I'm thinking of .. ** 1) MBA 2) MSRE or MRED

Go MBA, and target REPE or Bank RE IBD for the internship. You should be in after that.
MSRE, in my opinion, are worthless. I used to work with a guy that teaches at the MSRE program at NYU, he's a moron. He used to come ask me stuff about the market before the class. Literally knew nothing.
Thx for replying. But I think I have to do 1year MBA - such as Kellogg, Cornell, Insead etc.. Cuz I'm alreay 33 yrs old and I don't think it's good idea to spend 2yrs in MBA. I'm afraid they would not give me any chance after 2yrs of studying. What do you think? Still recommend any 2yr top b schools?
I'm the same age, so, I understand where you're coming from. My take is though, how many more opportunities will HBS or some comparable 2 year program provide, vs a 1 year? I think the 2 year route definitely gives your more inroads through their formal recruitment into those shops your looking at, vs getting in some other way.
I think the probability of success for what you're trying to achieve increases with a 2yr MBA. that's all i was trying say.
