What books/courses/materials do you guys recommend?

I just graduated a couple months ago and lucked into this investment/credit analyst role at a real estate firm. I’m working on credit underwriting for properties and development. What books, videos, materials do you guys recommend for me to understand the math, finance and real estate to be the best analyst. I majored in finance in college so I do have some background. Currently doing Adventures in CRE, but open to other suggestions.
