Putting deals you underwrote/involved in on your resume

As title suggests, what are some ways you guys approach this. Can people copy and paste this part of your resume on here. Please redact as appropriate for privacy.

Im in the hunt and Im trying to update my resume a bit but not sure how much in detail I should go about doing this.

Thanks everyone!

 

On my last resume, I listed five or six high level bullets from my job, then listed all of the deals as sub bullets under "Selected Transaction Experience." I tried to add a little color on the state of the deal too...for example "555 East 55th Street - $10M mezzanine loan (85% LTC) to finance the development of a 100,000 SF multifamily building in Midtown East"

 

I agree with this. I would put deals that you underwrote and CLOSED only. To you my use HFF example could you imagine if a debt broker was pitching you and said "I have pitched over $7 B worth of assignments". No one would care. The thing is how many did you work on all of the way through....side note: most summer internships are really for 2-3 months so if I saw someone write on his/her resume "underwrote $1 B worth of acquisitions" I would call bullshit. Just because you read through the OM and tweaked the rental rate in Argus doesn't really mean you did much of anything.

 

My take on this is to always use the bigger number. I did and investment sales internship one summer where we closed a $75MM office sale, but I also underwrote (read as helped underwrite) ~$500MM in office, industrial, and mixed-use properties. I'll let you guess which bullet went on the resume...

If someone asks you to talk about this then have a deal you closed on hand to discuss, but I always lean towards the bigger number.
