PRIVATE STUDIO, BY MASTERCRE

Curated Customized One-to-One CRE Education, Training, and Coaching.

The CRE courses and videos taught you the principles and formulas.

Nobody taught you the judgment.

MASTERCRE "Private Studio" is private, one-to-one commercial and investment real estate training built around the capabilities you need to next: underwrite and size a deal; build the CRE model from scratch in Microsoft Excel®; price an acquisition, disposition, or refinance; read a deal package and know what to build what to ignore, and what's just plain wrong. Your own work. With an established, experienced practitioner right next to you. All with a written record of what you can now do.

WHY THIS EXISTS.

Commercial real estate has

no front door.

We built one.

01

Nobody trained you.

Most people in CRE learned by watching someone else, if they were lucky enough to have someone to watch.  Firms hire for the work and rarely teach it.

02

Courses stop at the formulas.

Capitalization rates, IRRs, and debt yields are easy to teach.  Knowing what a seller is hiding in the rent roll is not.  That comes from working real deals beside someone who has.

03

So we work real deals.

You can recite the method and still freeze at a blank sheet, a loan sizing, or a package that does not add up.  That moment is what this exists to fix.

WHAT THIS IS.

Exactly what MasterCRE is, and why it works.

For anyone who wants to invest in commercial real estate - or build a career in it - and be able to do the work.

This is not another CRE course. This is "MasterCRE Private Studio."

Every course in commercial real estate teaches the same formulas, in the same order, regardless of what you need. That is why people who finish them still cannot underwrite a deal, size a capital stack, price an acquisition, or dissect a deal package without a template.

The formulas were never the hard part. The hard part is the judgment: knowing when the numbers are right and the deal is still wrong, and knowing exactly what to do about it.

Judgment is learned only one way. Someone who has done it hundreds of times watches you do it, on your own deals and your own models, and tells you what you missed. Then, you do it again until you stop missing it.

MasterCRE is that. Private, one-to-one education and training built around the capabilities you want to be able to demonstrate in 90 days, from wherever you start. You name the gaps; we write the objectives in Session One - the next 90 days convert it into a skill you can show.

No crowded membership. No one-size-fits-all curriculum. No library of complex videos to struggle through alone. No advice on whether to do the deal or take the job.

A defined objective, a written plan, direct feedback, and focused work - all built around the way YOU learn and the work you have to perform.

FOUR WAYS IN. ONE STANDARD.

You tell me what you want, or need, to do.

I tell you which offer gets you there.

The three levels are the same work at a different pace; the Studio Diagnostic is one paid hour.  You do not choose; that is settled on the Fit Call.  Founding rates are held for 12 months.

Studio DiagnosticOne private hour on where you stand, and what to build first. $500Once.  Credited toward another offer within 14 days. One 60-minute session on your material. None. A written diagnosis within two business days.

Paid in full
Not applicable.
Private sessions

Reviews of your work
None beyond the session.
Written deliverable
A one-page diagnosis within two business days: where you stand on the Studio Standard, a 0 to 4 scale, the one gap that matters most, what to build first, and which Private Studio level fits if you want to continue.

The session, recorded, and the files you worked on.
Changing levels
The $500 is credited if you start another Private Studio offer within 14 days of receiving your written diagnosis.
How you get in
Click Apply below.  When you submit your application, you book your 25-minute Fit Call on the next screen.  The Diagnostic is recommended on the call when one hour on your material will tell us more than a Foundations, Applied, or Advanced term would.

Who this is for

Someone who wants an honest read on their own ability before committing to a higher offer, or someone with one specific problem that an hour can solve.

What this is not

A free consultation, a deal opinion, or a sample of a course.  You leave knowing exactly where you stand and exactly what to do next.

Who this is for

Someone preparing to lead deals, a team, or their own shop, who wants a practitioner beside their live work twice a week while they do it.

What this is not

Advisory.  Greg teaches you to analyze, structure, and decide.  He does not decide for you, and he does not give opinions of value.  If you need direct advice or guidance on a transaction, that is separate work performed through HAUTE CRE Advisory (www.HAUTEcre.com).

Apply and ask about AdvancedSay so in the application, then book your 25-minute Fit Call.  The call decides.
Terms, the same for every MasterCRE Private Studio offer

The first month's payment is due at signing, then on each monthly anniversary; or paid in full up front for a 10 percent discount.  Your seat is held when both the fully executed agreement and the first payment are received.  Unused sessions are refundable in full if you cancel within the first 14 days; after that, one 30-day pause per term and no refunds.  Reschedule 48 hours ahead and nothing is lost; a session missed without the 48-hour notice is used and lost.

Move up at any monthly anniversary; the new rate applies from that month and nothing already paid is lost.  Move down once per term at an anniversary, before the final month.

Founding rates are held for 12 months.  After the first ten seats fill, new clients join at the then-prevailing rates.

Ten minutes.  Book your Fit Call the moment you submit.  Greg reads every application himself before you talk.

HOW PRIVATE STUDIO WORKS.

A private, curated path to develop your CRE capabilities that matter next.

Four steps to demonstrable capabilities that you can show.

STEP 1

APPLY

The ten minutes that tell me exactly who you are and what you need.

Complete the application here. Ten minutes, one application for all four offers.  You tell me what you need to be able to do; you do not pick an offer. - we do that together.

STEP 2

BOOK YOUR FIT CALL

The 25 minutes that are most important.

After you submit your completed application from Step 1, a calendar screen will appear. Choose any 25-minute slot one business day out or later; I personally read your application before we talk.  No charge, no obligation - even if we don't work together.

STEP 3

THE RECOMMENDATION

You get an answer in writing.

Within one business day of the Fit Call, you get: an offer recommendation; the Studio Diagnostic, or; "not a fit," with a better next step for you.  Sign, pay the first payment (or full payment for a 10% discount), and your seat is held.

STEP 4

SESSION ONE

We start the work. Together.

In Session One we write and sign your Studio Plan.  Then private sessions on your material, written reviews at Days 30, 60, and 90, and at the end your Capability Record: one page on what you can now do that you could not do before.

You can read the full process, step by step, here.

THE GUY BEHIND IT ALL

Gregory J. Laskody

Built by the top 1 percent. For the next 1 percent.

I am glad you are here. After thirty-plus years in commercial real estate and capital markets, five hundred-plus transactions, more than $3 billion in volume across every major property type and three full economic cycles, 1988 to today, I kept running into the same gap: there is nowhere to go to build the skills, the knowledge, and the judgment this business runs on, whether you want to invest in it or make a career in it. People learn by watching someone, if they are lucky enough to have someone to watch. That is why I started MasterCRE.

I am also the founder of HAUTE CRE Advisory, a fee-only, fiduciary-only, conflict-free firm that advises institutional and private CRE stakeholders nationwide through Pre-Decision Review™, Specialized CRE Advisory, and Litigation Support and Consulting Expert services. MasterCRE is where I teach the same discipline to the next generation of investors and professionals.

I taught real estate as an adjunct professor at Miami Dade College, served as president of the CCIM East Coast District, and am currently writing “How Commercial and Investment Real Estate Actually Works: A Guide to Investing, Capital, and Careers in the $2.0 to $20.0 Million Market," due in 2027.

If you want to be able to do this work - AND do it well - I would welcome the opportunity to help you get there.
