American Realty Advisors: Thoughts?
Wondering what people have heard about ARA. Considering an offer but know very little about them. Only post I have seen on here was from last year and most comments were very vague.

I am assuming this is for their LA office - What group under ARA are you inquiring about?
This is indeed for the LA office. I'm wondering about both AM and Acquisitions given the nature of the position. Thanks!

The articles are for an entirely different company.
You are right, I thought they were under that same umbrella.
Have worked closely with them.
They have a lot of money to deploy so that's good.
Folks I worked with were great. Smart, reasonable individuals who "get it".
Be prepared to work in an extremely bureaucratic environment though. I understand this is an LP shop so pretty common but it was nauseating at times with them. Their deal memos are simply obnoxious. Content for the point of content. Way too meaty. Personally, that'd drive me crazy.

Any other color on them, saw a recent posting on LinkedIn and was curious if it was worth applying? Based on the reviews on Glassdoor, it sounds like the culture is less than ideal. I also read the other thread on here about how they are tough to work with from a brokerage assignment.
I’m meh on them… doesn’t seem like brutal hours but yeah bureaucratic culture. Partnered with them on a deal and they were fairly hands off until a decision needed to be made then they needed 100 layers of communication. They were looking for a 1st year associate ~1 year ago (non-LA office) and a headhunter quoted $100k + 20% bonus if that helps.
1st year associate at $100k, damn that seems a bit low. Any insight into their hours and or exit opps? And was this for acquisitions or asset management ?
This is from the standpoint of a broker many years ago, but they were absolutely horrific to deal with as a client. Incredibly slow in making decisions, paralysis by analysis, and just did not "get it" in terms of how the leasing markets worked--ie, sitting on time sensitive proposals, retrading on BS terms that don't matter, etc. Just a single data point so don't take it too seriously but maybe indicative of their process/thinking.
Thanks, this seems to be a common sentiment that others have also echoed. I guess if it sounds like a duck ...

Have interviewed there multiple times. Avoid.
Can you provide any more color? Are you saying the interview process sucks, the company sucks, or both?
