About this template
The Industry — Real Estate template is a polished CV set in Cormorant Garamond and Source Sans Pro on warm ivory paper, with an amber accent. Sections give space to portfolio size, transaction volume, asset classes and market knowledge — the figures deal-flow and asset-management recruiters read first when sorting senior CVs.
Who is it for?
It suits premium real-estate agents, asset and portfolio managers, developers, acquisition leads and investment directors applying to investment managers (Blackstone, Brookfield, Carlyle, KKR Real Estate, Tishman Speyer), REITs (Prologis, Equity Residential, Simon Property Group, Boston Properties), family offices and brokerage networks (CBRE, JLL, Cushman & Wakefield, Knight Frank, Savills, Compass). Equally relevant for MRICS-credentialed valuers.
How to use it
State cumulative transaction volume ($ M), deal count signed and average deal size, year by year and by asset class (residential, office, logistics, retail, hospitality, healthcare, data centres, life sciences). List the environmental certifications you have worked on (LEED v4.1, BREEAM In-Use, WELL, WiredScore, NABERS) and sector tools (Argus Enterprise, Yardi, MRI, Anaplan, CoStar). For valuers, cite MRICS or MAI credentials and annual valuation count with average asset value.
Frequently asked questions
How do I list deals under confidentiality?
Describe by asset class, location and size without naming the asset: 'Prime office CBD New York, 220,000 sq ft, $480M, Q2 2024'. Once the transaction is public (MSCI Real Capital Analytics, Real Deal, GlobeSt), name the address and counterparty. CBRE and JLL recruiters cross-check on sector databases — confidentiality discipline is a positive signal.
Should I list environmental certifications?
Yes — they have become a core competency. Mastery of LEED v4.1 Operations & Maintenance, BREEAM In-Use International, WELL v2, WiredScore Platinum and NABERS Energy is read as a discrete skill, especially for core European and APAC portfolios. Add ESG tooling (CRREM, GRESB Real Estate Assessment) if you have contributed to reporting cycles.
Does it suit residential asset-management applications?
Yes, particularly for institutional residential funds (Greystar, AvalonBay, Equity Residential, BTR specialists) and affordable housing operators in transition. The numbers+portfolio format fits. For luxury residential brokerage (Sotheby's International Realty, The Agency, Compass top-tier), a more narrative and photo-led format would land better — switch templates.
