Project Destined is a firm that provides Real Estate Internships, they train individuals to enter the real estate industry with internships that help them understand real estate competencies like financial modeling, how to work on live deals, create memos to present in live real estate deals, how to manage a team of individuals to work in the real estate industry. They further help individuals by connecting them to industry professionals in over 250 different real estate companies across America. During my internship, I actively participated in the evaluation of a live real estate deal in Dallas, Texas. I collaborated with a team to analyze the deal and presented an investment memo to real estate professionals from Brookfield and KIMCO. Additionally, I underwent comprehensive training, accumulating over 60 hours, covering various aspects of real estate, including fundamentals, property valuation, deal financing, financial modeling, and market research. One of the significant projects I worked on was with professionals at Invesco. Together, we developed a detailed 5-year cash flow projection for the investment. Furthermore, I was involved in structuring a breakdown of the loan deal, which included a comprehensive cost analysis for value-added improvements and property renovations. This experience provided me with valuable insights into real estate investment analysis, financial modeling, and deal structuring. This internship has proven to be incredibly beneficial for me. It has underscored the importance of being detail-oriented and a quick learner. I've discovered that these qualities not only pay off but also enable me to expand my knowledge beyond my initial responsibilities. #UTDBSFIN, #hireJSOM, #ProjectDestined, #InvescoDallas

🌟 Reflecting on My First Week at the Capital Markets Group Internship at JLL in Austin. My first week with the Capital Markets Group at JLL in the Austin office has been incredibly successful and enriching! This dynamic market, particularly in Austin and San Antonio, has given me the opportunity to dive into multifamily projects and industrial deals. Throughout this week, I’ve: - Gained insights into the deal processes from start to close - Shadowed the underwriting of deals and identified key metrics - Learned about loan and debt eligibility guidance - Contributed to pitch decks by working on market indicators - Assisted in pulling out comps for deals - Engaged in meaningful conversations with Casey Wenzel and CW Sheehan in separate coffee chats, during which I gained insights on their career paths, ambitions, interests in CRE, their advice for a successful internship experience, etc. What stands out the most is the team culture—an amazing, fun, and beautiful blend of unique, smart individuals. Their curiosity and willingness to share knowledge made my first week unforgettable. Tips & Tricks for the First Week: - Take Time to Adjust: Meet people and get comfortable with the new environment. - Don't Stress Over Information Overload: Ask questions, even the simplest ones. I’ve learned that there's no such thing as a stupid question. - Shadow and Learn: Don’t hesitate to ask to duplicate someone’s work to understand the process better. I’m grateful for this opportunity and excited about the journey ahead! #Internship #JLL #CapitalMarkets #RealEstate #Austin #SanAntonio #TeamCulture #Learning #CareerGrowth

🚨 *Seeking Secondary Internship Opportunities for quantitatively trained students* 🚨 Every year I host my Annual Diversity in Secondaries dinner. At this dinner, I bring together professionals of color across the secondaries industry for an evening of networking, mentorship, fine dining (thanks to the Harvard Club of New York City), and discussion around ways to continue to collaborate across opportunities in the secondaries market. Last year, two students from Howard University were selected to assist in the preparation of the event. They were presented scholarships, and provided accommodations to travel to the event where we had over 85+ attendees representing 48 firms. This year we have new fellows from Morehouse College and Howard University who are eager to not only help with the event but more importantly acquire secondaries internship opportunities for this upcoming 2024 summer and hopefully post graduate roles upon graduation next year. Should your firm still be working through summer internship planning, please let me know as I would like to submit these stellar students for candidacy to your programs. Alternatively, if you know of firms who are still reviewing candidates for their 2024 summer internship program, please share as well. The students each interned at top-quartile buyout private equity firms last summer and are eager to gain experience within the world of secondaries. Each student has been enrolled in the AltFinance program where they have been quantitatively trained in financial modeling and valuation analysis. #internship #opportunities #education #privateequity #privatemarkets #privatecapital #privatecredit #secondaries #diversity #growthequity #internship2024 #altfinance
