This two-day course presents a framework for understanding commercial real estate (CRE) analysis and provides you with the techniques to reduce risk and improve your decision-making and loan structuring skills.
Course Agenda
Commercial Real Estate Analysis Foundations provides you with an end-to-end loan underwriting process for CRE finance and banking. The course begins with a framework to evaluate and mitigate credit risk, then explores various property types and discusses external and property-specific risks. The program addresses cash flow analysis, asset coverage, financial ratios, and property valuation approaches to help determine the CRE loan amount and concludes with CRE loan underwriting and loan structuring options. Case studies and group projects will be included throughout both days of the course.
