It's kind of difficult give you the specific answer your are looking for. However, as a more general note, what they undoubtedly are trying to gauge is your understanding of real estate finance and to see that you are not complete novice in excel. That being said, in the past what I've seen is generally a simple value-add acquisition of a office/residential building where you have a simple rent roll and some key assumptions relating to expenses, financing, leases, return requirement etc. From there, you generally are expected to model out these cash flows and generate some key metrics such as IRR/EMx/CoC and various sensitivity analyses.
If this is a more senior analyst/associate role, I think the test generally are more complex, perhaps with multiple layers of debt, specific return requirements, draw schedules etc. From what I know about Tristan, the technical test is not their most important step and functions more like a check-the-box. I would focus more on the firm itself and making sure it is a personality fit.
Good luck!
Hey , I have an excel test with Tristan next week . Would you mind sharing some details about your test ?
Hey, I was wondering if you could share your overview of the financial modelling test with Tristan Capital partners? Any tips/advice would be much appreciated!
Sup dude,
how was the Tristan modelling test? Was it remote or in person? How was long was it? What did it cover?
Hey LukSKYWALKER, how was the excel test? Any best tips on how to prepare?

The guy above is correct, it is known more for being a lifestyle and culture shop rather than a technical shop doing complex deals. You are best off doing research on the company itself, its founders and story (ex AEW). The model test is likely not a deciding factor, we have interviewed candidates from there over the years. Pretty mixed bag, some were very awful and some were fantastically smart.
Anyone heard back after excel test?
Also curious when was everyone asked to do the test?
