Based on the WSO content, a real estate debt case study typically involves several key components that assess your ability to analyze and make decisions on real estate debt investments. Here’s what you might expect in an in-office case study for a real estate debt position:
Financial Modeling: You will likely be asked to build or interpret a financial model that projects the cash flows and potential returns from a real estate debt investment. This could involve calculating the debt service coverage ratio (DSCR), interest coverage ratio (ICR), and loan-to-value (LTV) ratio.
Market Analysis: The case study might include analyzing the market conditions of the property’s location. This could involve understanding the economic, demographic, and real estate market trends that could affect the property and the loan.
Loan Structuring: You may need to suggest a loan structure based on the risk profile of the project. This includes deciding on the appropriate debt size, interest rate, term, and covenants.
Risk Assessment: Identifying potential risks associated with the loan, such as borrower creditworthiness, market volatility, and property-specific issues, and suggesting mitigants or strategies to manage these risks.
Presentation: Often, you will be required to present your findings and recommendations to a panel or senior member of the team. This tests not only your analytical skills but also your ability to communicate complex information clearly and persuasively.
Prepare to demonstrate a strong grasp of real estate financial concepts, attention to detail, and strategic thinking. These case studies are designed to simulate the real-world decisions you would be making in a real estate debt role.
