Top Shelf Academy or Adventure in CRE accelerator?
Hi guys! I hold an RE degree but since my under wasn’t in finance, I wanted to learn RE financial modeling and some in-depth concepts better. I’ve been taking Justin’s class of breaking in to CRE and now I am trying to choose form top shelf academy or A.CRE... any suggestion? In terms of in-depth concepts and excel modeling, which one do you think is better?

I know there were some discussions on the sub of those RE courses and people have been saying good things about this two. Unfortunately I don’t have the budget to enroll both since I’m still unemployed:/ Please help!

I would also say that Spencer Burton of A.CRE is more of a natural teacher than the guys in BIWS and Break into CRE and a more experienced industry veteran. No offense to Brian of BIWS, but I don't he's ever worked in the industry. And Justin Kivel isn't quite on the level of Spencer and Michael.", "replies": [{"id": "if5tltm", "text": "Thanks a lot.
