Real Estate & Property
Property deals, worked through properly
A property deal can look excellent until vacancy, financing costs and capital expenditure are in the sheet. These courses make you put them in. You build cash-flow projections, loan schedules and return measures yourself, and the checker confirms each step, so the final yield or IRR rests on assumptions you understand.
The 15 courses cover buy-to-let and short-term rental analysis, development appraisals and joint-venture waterfalls, mortgage underwriting and refinancing, property management and service-charge billing, REIT valuation, self-storage, housing-market indicators and appraisal methods. There is also a course on licence-exam maths and one on the business side of working as an agent.
