Real Estate Fundamentals

Carroll School of Management

This is as an introduction to the real estate industry, looking at it from multiple perspectives. Through lectures, case studies and guests speakers, we will explore the largest asset class in the world. We will learn industry terminology and how leases create property cash flow; how design and market research influences projects; how tenants make leasing decisions; and the role of the public sector and the community in approval and financing - often to advance public purposes - and the tension between the private developer and public sector; we will study affordable, low income and senior housing.
