Probably the most important question you will get. You NEED to come off as passionate. Employers do not want someone who “thinks” they want to go into real estate. It is a specific industry and the players are passionate so you should be too. And if you aren’t then you should probably stop reading this blog. The key is to easily tell a story about your interest in real estate. Instead of saying the classic “real estate is tangible” line, try something different. Personally, I like the fact that when you go out and meet someone, perhaps the first thing that comes up is where they live on campus. And what most certainly always follows is “what do you pay in rent?” Real Estate is an asset class that is unique in this respect. You don’t walk up to someone and say “Hey how much money do you have in variable annuities?” Real Estate unlike traditional Finance is discussed in real life!
