To maintain a strong client focus, be responsive to client requests, and to develop/maintain productive working relationships with client personnel. Students working for us should keep up to date on current business/economic developments relevant to the client's business and collaborate with team members to set goals and responsibilities for the audit.

Responsibilities include:

• Valuation of diverse types of commercial real estate assets and portfolios in support of unique engagements including valuation, advisory and transaction services.
