Commercial Real Estate Interview Help
I have been talking to a commercial real estate group in the debt space (mezzanine financing and structured debt) regarding a junior level opening.
My previous conversations with the group have been mostly behavioral, but I assume at some point during my interview process I will face more technical questions.
I've brushed up on my 3 financial statements, how they link, etc., but what else should I prepare for that may be more exclusive to real estate lending/credit?
Also, does anyone have any suggestions for why someone would want to be in real estate on the debt side rather than equity? I have my own thoughts on this, but would like to hear some other ideas.
I look forward to some insight.
Cheers,

PM me an email and I'll send you a study guide I made which helped me land an offer at one of the top CRE lending groups in the US.
I expect a couple SB's :)
know how to do a DCF and model returns to the mezzanine / debt layers... also the various ratios (DSCR, ICR, LTV, etc...)
Here's an CMBS Primer from 2005, Morgan Stanley. The rates are outdated and there have been several changes to the industry but it's worth a read if you're looking at commercial real estate finance.
