Other online courses are designed to help new college grads 'get a job' in Commercial Real Estate. This is different.

This Isn't Another Boring Finance Course

 

This is a diagnostic tool to measure and improve the 3 pillars of scaling to 5+ unit commercial multifamily properties.

Your Underwriting Confidence

Stop fearing the complexities of analyzing commercial properties. We'll measure your readiness to move from 'comps' to 'cap rates' so you can underwrite any 5-20 unit deal with confidence, not confusion.

Your Capital Stack Readiness

A residential FICO score won't get you a commercial loan. We'll assess your readiness to negotiate with lenders and navigate the nuances of commercial multifamily financing.

Your Wealth-Building System

Profits are for spending, but assets and equity make you wealthy. We'll measure your readiness to move from 'landlord' to 'asset manager' by building systems that scale, not just a portfolio that creates another job.

This Is For Real Estate Investors Who Want:

  • An efficient way to screen 5+ unit apartment deals

  • A clear understanding of how lenders underwrite CRE deals

  • A clean system for financing, due diligence, and closing

  • Practical tools, checklists, and examples

Your Guide on the Path - Trevor Calton

For over 25+ years, I've been an active investor, commercial lender, and asset manager. I've originated billions in commercial loans, managed a 6000+unit portfolio, and seen firsthand what separates a profitable deal from a financial disaster.

These are the exact, battle-tested systems I've used to analyze, fund, and manage commercial properties in the real world. My goal isn't just to teach you finance; it's to hand you the step-by-step playbook that gives you the confidence to build your portfolio.

After training thousands of investors and professionals, I created Real Estate Finance Academy for one simple reason: I saw too many smart, ambitious investors getting stuck or making the same preventable mistakes. They were drowning in information but starving for a proven, repeatable system.

Let's get you to the closing table and start building your portfolio. See you on the inside.
