Ace Private Equity Real Estate: Technical & Behavioral Interview Mastery
This package is designed for professionals who are getting real estate private equity interviews but need to convert them — building genuine fluency in financial modeling, a strong behavioral story bank, and the composure to perform under real interview pressure. Through five structured 1-on-1 sessions, you'll go from understanding the concepts to actually performing them live, culminating in two full mock interviews with structured feedback — taught by a current Asset Manager at Greystar and Adjunct Professor of Real Estate Finance at IE Business School. Each session builds toward realistic simulation rather than passive learning — reviewing an actual acquisition model the way an interviewer would, building real answers to the questions that come up again and again, and running full mock interviews under genuine time pressure. By the end of this package, you'll have working fluency in real estate financial modeling, a structured bank of behavioral answers, and two full mock interviews of direct experience and feedback behind you — ready to walk into any interview, technical or behavioral, with genuine confidence.
What's included
My coaching is highly personalized and focused on practical outcomes rather than generic advice. Before each session, I review your background, resume, and career goals so we can spend our time addressing the areas that will have the greatest impact. Drawing on my experience as an Asset Manager at Greystar and Adjunct Professor of Real Estate Finance at IE Business School, I combine real-world industry insights with structured frameworks to help you develop the technical knowledge, positioning, and confidence needed to break into institutional real estate private equity. Every session concludes with clear action items so you leave with an actionable roadmap—not just ideas.
- Working fluency in the mechanics of a real estate acquisition model
- A live review of your own model, the way an interviewer would probe it
- A structured behavioral answer bank covering the recurring REPE interview questions
- Trained composure and delivery for the moments you don't immediately know an answer

I specialize in the strategic management of real estate assets, with a particular focus on the Living sectors. Currently, I serve as an Asset Manager at Greystar in Madrid, overseeing Be Casa, the firm’s Flex Living portfolio in Spain. In this role, I coordinate cross-functional teams across operations, finance, development and marketing to improve asset performance, optimize NOI, and build long-term value. My background spans the entire asset lifecycle. Prior to Greystar, I spent several years advising institutional investors and developers on transactions within the PBSA, Co-Living, Build-to-Rent, and Senior Housing spaces at international consulting firms including EY and Savills. This advisory background, combined with early experience in construction, allows me to bridge the gap between financial analysis and practical, on-the-ground operations. Outside of my corporate role, I am committed to education and industry development. I am an Adjunct Professor at IE Business School, where I teach Real Estate Investment & Asset Management. I also serve on the executive committee of the Urban Land Institute (ULI) Young Leaders and am an active member of the Nova Talent network.
