About This Course
Working with architects, engineers, contractors, financing teams, government, and a host of consultants, real estate developers transform ideas into buildings and with them the spaces in which we live, work, and play. So, how do developers identify good opportunities from bad and then manage a wide group of stakeholders to get the project finished? It is a challenge every step of the way but with significant potential rewards at the end.
This course will trace the development process from beginning to end, introduce foundational knowledge in project feasibility and financial modeling, integrate real-world examples via case studies, and expose students to Twin Cities-based real estate practitioners via guest spots.
Sample textbook: Peiser, Richard and David Hamilton, Professional Real Estate Development: The ULI Guide to the Business.
