There's also a stigma associated with digital crowdsourcing because these deals tend to be very fee heavy and target unsophisticated retail investors with minimal knowledge of CRE (see Cardone for example). \n\nThat said, if you're doing transactions and seeing how deals are valued, structured and completed, it's a decent place to learn the basics. I would just keep an eye out for a transition towards a more conventional role as an acquisitions analyst or as a junior broker at a major firm. Your experience syndicating could come in handy as a debt &amp; equity broker in particular.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}]
