Anyone gone from a REIT to private equity in investment type roles?
I’m thinking of trying to make the jump soon. I’m junior level with acquisitions/developments/sales/strategy experience, but I suck at modelling. 

If anyone here has made the jump it would be great to hear from you. If you have any advice on how to prepare, what the key things to learn are, what the biggest differences are etc. it would be much appreciated!
