Valuation in the REIT Sector

REIT Valuation is an intensive, hands-on program dedicated to the intricacies of valuing REITs in today's environment. Attendance is limited to 30 participants to ensure ample opportunity for personalized instruction. This course is a graduate-level specialization, building on the foundation established at SNL REIT School.

While valuing REITs has never been a straightforward process, the uncertainty – and opportunities – in the REIT market now make it more important than ever to understand how to recisely evaluate REITs as investments, transaction targets or to understand how others value your company.

REIT Valuation combines lectures, case studies and hands-on exercises, including working with Excel-based models. Led by Chris Haley, a top-ranked 20-year veteran REIT equity analyst and long-time instructor at SNL REIT School, REIT Valuation is the premier course on valuation for finance professionals who cover or work in the REIT sector.

Prerequisites

Attendance at SNL REIT School or equivalent experience is a recommended prerequisite. Please contact SNL CFE with any questions regarding prerequisite knowledge: (434) 951-7786.

Participants will need to bring a laptop computer equipped with Microsoft Excel.
