CRE Recruiting
I want to extend my thanks to the team, the speakers, and the graders. This course has been extremely impactful for my professional development. I recently spoke with a broker whom I consider a mentor, and he was impressed with my progress in understanding CRE topics. I'm gladly recommending this course to anyone looking to develop a strong foundation in CRE.
Frank Nater (Class of 2025)
Top Virtual Student in Graduating ClassMy career is in commercial lending and this is where the class really helped me become both more confident in talking to customers about development projects but also underwriting their projects.
Kyle Bubela (Class of 2021)
Banking Professional at Jefferson BankForesite’s CRE Launch Program was top-notch. As a professional economic developer, I had certain preconceived ideas of what this course would teach me. The program easily surpassed those expectations. I gained a deeper appreciation of the many facets of commercial real estate — from macro economics to micro economics, outstanding lectures from solid professionals and real world projects — I felt I came away with a lot more than I expected. I cannot speak more highly about this program. Thank you again for this remarkable opportunity.
