The purpose of the Investment course is to provide a working knowledge of the basic tools of analysis for (1) direct real estate investments, considering both annual cash flow and the reversion, and (2) indirect investments in real estate. Direct investments refer to the situation where the investor invests in real estate; indirect investments refer to investments using either irregular methodology or wraparound mortgages.
The course is not directed toward a specialized student population. Rather, it is intended for those who may pursue a variety of clients and customers who are current investors or who will be making entry into the investment markets in real estate for the first time. Students will be introduced to investment criteria and the process of analyzing investments.
