Deciding on a Real Estate Finance course: REFM or Adventures in CRE Accelerator
I am a recent college grad looking to work in real estate finance. I have some experience modeling in Excel but want to hone my skills. From research I have done the two best/most comprehensive modeling courses are gerREFM certification and the Adventures in CRE Accelerator Certification.
I'm wondering if anyone here has had any experience with them or has some knowledge on which one is better. Any advice would be much appreciated. If I'm going to spend $600 on something I want it to be the best available option.
Thanks!
Not sure about content/quality, but REFM has been around longer and may have an advantage from a resume/employer point of view. I mean, I've heard of hit (in positive tones) a lot more, and if I saw it on a resume for analyst or intern application I was reviewing I would likely think more of it compared to one I had really heard much about.
Don't take this as gospel, as I don't think REFM or any of these will really make or break someone. But, if you can figure out which is more 'employer' accepted (if any), that would be how I would make the call.

nice
They already have a ridiculous amount of free resources on their website.
ok
I’m a senior in college and I bought the REFM course. it is pretty good (level one is really easy) but I heard great things about A.CRE, it seems like everything is broken down to be easily understood. REFM seems a little rushed in my opinion (some parts of level 2 and 3) if you have no prior knowledge of the info it can get frustrating cause the course is thought in a not so elementary way. the certification is open book for REFM and I heard it looks really good on your resume and that’s why I’m doing it
I took some of the classes off Udemy from Justin Kivel. They were one sale for $10 each and I used what I learned in those classes in a modeling interview with a large REPE shop. I landed an associate position.
I don’t know what the more expensive courses have over doing it through Udemy, but the $10 courses on Udemy were enough financial modeling for me.
