CREW Careers Committee

CREW Careers is the committee responsible for planning and executing a year-round outreach program to local high schools, colleges, and universities. Through professional panels, the anatomy of the deal program and special events we engage with the new generation of commercial real estate professionals. 

Anatomy of the Deal
 


The Anatomy of the Deal sub-committee of CREW Careers is a program aiming to showcase high-profile development projects in the Dallas commercial market, which are typically intertwined with the CREW Careers Development Competition. These videos showcase all players of the selected development, their roles on the project, and the collaborative interactions between parties that occur in the creation of these developments. Follow along to see how each career plays an important role within the anatomy of the deal.
