Private Equity

The Institute for Real Estate Private Equity (IREPE) is an independent educational resource focused on the principles, structures, and practices that define institutional real estate private equity.

The Institute is designed for students, early-career professionals, and practitioners seeking a clearer understanding of how real estate private equity operates across the investment lifecycle — from capital formation and acquisitions to asset management, portfolio construction, and exit strategy.

Content is grounded in commonly used institutional frameworks and publicly available information, with an emphasis on analytical rigor rather than deal promotion or firm-specific perspectives.
