Promising High School, College Students Introduced to CRE Career Paths
Greystone and Project Destined work with NYC students and HBCU students through learning and mentorships.
Greystone is making sure that high school students as well as students at HBCUs and other colleges nationwide are getting the chance to be introduced to commercial real estate careers.
Greystone and Project Destined, a social impact platform that provides training in financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and real estate, assisted in these endeavors.
This summer, Greystone hosted 15 students in a summer intensive program that introduced high school students from Comp Sci High in The Bronx to key CRE finance topics.
These participants also had the opportunity to work with mentors who shared “real-world deal analytics,” according to a Greystone release.
The students also visited a Greystone multifamily development project in Harlem, NYC, “to learn how a project progresses from spreadsheets to hammers and to see first-hand how a multifamily property is managed once complete.”
On the careers front, Greystone welcomed students at HBCUs and other colleges nationwide to apply for a scholarship to a seven-week program that taught real estate lending, asset management, and underwriting.
