NCREIF Academy Courses - Offered on April 7 and April 10
Monday, April 7 - Two Classes Offered
Investment Analysis and Due DiligenceThe focus of this course will be analysis and due diligence for potential acquisition or disposition (hold‐sell analysis) of properties, including expectations of investment committees and investment committee memo structures. Students will learn key factors used to develop proforma assumptions, and learn how to calculate the key measures of return and investment value used by institutional investors, including the impact of leverage. Factors that impact investment risk including the lease structure, type of financing and market conditions will be discussed, including additional risks associated with development projects. An Excel spreadsheet proforma will be used to calculate risk measures, perform a sensitivity analysis, partition the IRR and perform a Monte Carlo simulation.
Real Estate Case Studies: Analyzing Sector and Market Dynamics
This course is designed to illustrate how to underwrite supply and demand factors across various real estate property sectors and markets. The supply/demand relationship, in turn, impacts rents and occupancy for existing properties as well as the expected absorption and feasibility of proposed projects. The factors that impact these metrics and the types of data used to analyze them vary by property sector, location, and risk profile.
The course will discuss the sources of data and analytical models that may be utilized for a market analysis. This is important for appraisals of existing properties, feasibility studies of proposed projects, and determining strategies for renovation and repositioning of properties. Students will explore: interaction of the space (tenant) market with the capital markets as well as the globalization of real estate capital and its impact on pricing; technology and the changing spatial structure of cities (what this means for location decisions); and the evolution and increasing scale of real estate development.

Digging into Reporting StandardsThis course is designed to enhance your knowledge of the NCREIF PREA Reporting Standards (RS). Concepts are reinforced through engagement in small group breakout sessions.
This class can be particularly valuable for Investors, Portfolio Managers, Accountants, Performance Measurement, Client Services and Valuation personnel to connect the dots between investment products, investor reporting, benchmarks and standards.
Some topics include:- Why standards are critical for decision making- How RS fills the gap created by other standard-setting organizations- How RS can help you in your day-to-day responsibilities and where to find information- How you can be involved in establishing ever-evolving best practices in the real estate industry- What it means to be compliant
Students will leave the class with increased confidence in what the Reporting Standards are and why they are needed!
