In addition, Forest
City , Inc (one of our country’s largest developers) sent, John Neely,
one of their lead developers to spend the day with us to talk about how they
consider the urban plan of a community and how they engage with the urban
planners to decide whether or not they want to proceed with a
development. They were the re-developers of Stapleton Airport in Denver
and many more extremely large developments around the country. Some of
the students are talking about potential transactions with him now.
Today, we launch into the last
two days of the Advanced Real Estate Finance course where the students will
take their compounding and discounting business math skills to the next level
on the HP 10B II and Excel Spread Sheets with over 40 preprogrammed templates
to work from. We will do “real estate development modeling” Front Door
and Back Door Analysis and prepare the final exam.
Very exciting!
