“The term “value-add” is used a lot in the commercial real
estate industry, however, the main challenge for real estate professionals is
how to actually identify those opportunities and determine the highest and best
use for a property with all creative and financial considerations taken into
account,” says McDermott.
“Successful real estate entrepreneurs are those who
understand the process that combines a vision, careful analysis and insightful
due diligence. This course will work through that process and provide helpful
tools that can be utilized throughout property sectors and a diversity of
scenarios.”
This course is a part of the ULI Real Estate Entrepreneur
Programs which offer content and an experience specifically targeted to the
needs of real estate professionals driving innovation and change at the
neighborhood and community level.
