What is your opinion on a transaction analyst role? I recently received an offer from a (CBRE, JLL, CW). If you were looking to pivot towards towards an AM or PERE role in the future is this a bad choice? Any insight would help.

What's job description? If you're putting together models/packages then it's good. If it is transaction support then it is bad.
This is supporting the Corporate RE team of the client I’m assuming?
That is correct.
OK..I use to be in Corp RE and I worked with our army of JLL/CBRE guys. We had a couple of Analysts on their consultant team but I didn’t work directly with them. I do know what they do and it’s mainly financial analysis relative to corporation portfolio.
Basically, Company A will need to lease/buy more space. JLL/CBRE will need to figure out how much space can fit that number of employees and so forth. They will do the lease analysis as well. It is a lot of analysis and reporting based upon occupancy.
I think it depends entirely on your goals. If you want to get in to say AM then you can probably transition at some point given your ability to do lease analysis. I’ve heard of some teams using ARGUS even for their corporate clients. Development/Acq will be much tougher. Capital Markets is also a possibility given you will be working with those teams of the brokerage shop if the corporation owns assets and buys and sells. Your exit ops and experience will be much better if your client owns/sells real estate. If you’re client is Amazon vs some insurance company or doing JP Morgan ATM Branches then the former will be much better and more interesting.
