Center for Real Estate Studies
The Center for Real Estate Studies (CRES) allows students to study private practice and public real estate regulation. Our experienced and engaged faculty teaches courses, advanced seminars, independent study projects, and externships in governmental offices and real estate firms.
CRES’s programs and curriculum reflect current concerns about ensuring environmental sustainability, creating affordable housing, preserving historical landmarks, mortgage market stability, and more. The Center fosters an open dialogue on the mortgage and secondary mortgage market, landlord/tenant issues, co-ops and condominium development, financing and management, and intensive development of land resources.
For Students
All students are welcome to join CRES as affiliates. The Center helps students gain practical experience and build a network for future employment in real estate while developing the skills necessary to become a successful real estate attorney.
