Real Estate PE LBO - Exercises

Dear all,

I made it to final rounds at a large Real Estate PE Firm. I am a second year undergraduate student and therefore have not to much PE interview experience. I would be super happy to find any helpful material to train for Paper LBOs, as I will be given short 20-30min cases during the interview and would like to familiarise with potential questions.

Does anybody know where to find useful resources that take me through the process?

Many thanks!

Odds that you'll have to do a lbo model for a large REPE firm are slim to none, unless they have a traditional PE arm and that's what your interviewing for. lbo models are more so used in traditional PE firms that buy/sell companies not RE. Would more so need to be able to run a DCF model for a perspective property. Bunch of similarities between the two, but RE models are less granular than a full blown LBO model (i.e. no Sources & Uses tab).

Basically, based on the past year of financials and a rent roll forecast out CFs for predetermined hold period (3-7yrs), sale of property at the end of hold (NOI/Cap Rate), factor in any debt and calculate unlevered and levered IRR.
