Description
There are THREE things you need to do in order to learn financial modeling:

2. You need to understand the relevant features & techniques in Excel

We did too many years ago.
It didn’t have to be as painful and time-consuming as it was.
You DON’T have to learn everything about finance or Excel to become proficient at financial modeling.
Now, why should you learn from us?
I’m proud to say that I have an MBA from Stanford University and have worked on many commercial real estate properties across a dozen asset types in multiple markets. I even helped create the underwriting standards for a 2000-store private restaurant chain, helping them open new locations around the world.
And as a licensed broker and real estate consultant, I’ve helped many private clients with locating, evaluating, and structuring investment opportunities including multi-million dollar commercial property acquisitions and 1031 exchanges.
My co-instructor, Brandon Young, has a Masters in Real Estate Finance & Development from the University of North Carolina Charlotte as well as a Masters in Finance from Tulane University. He has over a decade of combined financial and real estate experience, including acquisitions and development.
We’ve been living and breathing in financial models for practically our entire careers.
What if I don’t have any Finance or Excel background?
