About CRE Launch
The program is run by a group of volunteers and the team at Foresite Commercial Real Estate. It started as the company’s internal training program and has since expanded and spun off into the CRE Launch program available for anyone in the industry.
The program was designed for up-and-coming aspiring commercial real estate professionals. That can be seniors in college, graduate students and new agents and property managers.
However, each year we have welcomed seasoned commercial real estate attorneys, lenders and other professionals that are seeking a big picture view of their role in the industry.
The program costs $2,500. Payment plans and scholarships are available.
Speakers are recruited and invited based on their expertise. If you are interested in applying to be a speaker, learn more here.
The program runs once a year during the summer for 10 weeks.
We are headquartered in San Antonio, Texas with four additional satellite campuses throughout the United States and a virtual cohort. The satellite campuses are located in Los Angeles, Miami, Houston and Austin.
If you or your company is interested in hosting a campus in your market we would love to visit with you. Please reach out so we can connect with you. You can also just email us at info@foresitecre.com or call us at (210) 816-2734.
We handle the logistics and programming and we ask our campus hosts to open up their physical space and their rolodex of industry connections. That means having a space large enough to host students (a large conference room is fine) and helping us connect students with mentors, and other key players in your market.
If you have been in the industry for at least five years and have a heart to help connect up and coming professionals then we encourage you to apply to be a mentor here.
The program is designed for working professionals so it is possible to complete it while working full time or holding an internship. We tell participants to expect to allocate 10 hours a week. The only times that require your scheduled attention and attendance are Mondays and Thursdays at noon central time for one hour. The rest of the time is self guided to accommodate your schedule.
