Real estate development projects have many moving pieces; the project manager guides and aligns resources to bring those pieces together into a coherent, financially successful whole. To develop critical project management skills, you will work through a case study and learn how to think like a project manager with guidance from Brad Wellstead, experienced former real estate development project manager and Cornell University faculty member. The practical tools and techniques you learn will allow you to confidently create a project schedule, set a realistic budget, and effectively manage resources, risks, and people.

Real estate investment is a popular way to accumulate wealth, but you don't have to be rich to get started. That's because there are many ways to finance real estate investments to raise the equity you need and structure debt beneficially. In this course, you will explore both sides of the financing equation to understand what equity and debt partners want, how to structure financing for a high likelihood of approval and rate of return, and how to perform analyses that are critical to success. Not only will these analyses upgrade your skills, the sophisticated spreadsheet tools you use can be applied immediately to real-life opportunities.

eCornell was truly one of the best investments I made in my entire career and it’s what brought me to where I am now.
Cornell University definitely changed my life.
What I wanted was something that had an exceptional caliber of professionals and professors, and eCornell actually gave me that.
I was really able to harness that technology and have a classroom right at my kitchen table with eCornell.
eCornell gave me the confidence I needed to take a seat at the table and say: I’m ready.
