Our business is focused on making real estate more valuable. But for us, it’s more than that. It’s people first, community always. It’s a life-filled career, not just a career-filled life.

Job Description
We are looking for someone to join the most active multifamily acquisitions team in the industry. As an Analyst - Investments, you will work with the LivCor/Blackstone deal teams to identify/underwrite/acquire/sell multifamily assets for Blackstone’s investment vehicles. Since 2018, the platform has transacted more than $21 billion in multifamily assets. In addition to unmatched transaction experience, you will gain direct exposure and mentorship from seasoned real estate investors across the LivCor/Blackstone teams. Furthermore, you will have the opportunity to leverage the platform’s competitive advantage via proprietary business intelligence and a suite of in-house specialist teams, including Redevelopment, Revenue Management, Asset Management, CapEx, Operations, Financial Planning & Analysis, Marketing, Strategic Initiatives, as well as access to industry leading technology solutions. This role will report to a Market Leader on the Investments Team.
What You Will Do
We know that if we take care of our team everything else will fall into place. We aren’t perfect, but we will try to set very clear expectations, always let you know where you stand, and do everything in our power to help you get where you want to go.
Our culture and values matter to us. A lot. We’re definitely not serious but we take this stuff seriously, if you get what we mean. We want a place that is an ego-free zone. A place where good people do good things together. It shouldn’t be rocket science in workplaces, but for some reason it still is? We’re absolutely determined to be different, and we think we’re doing a pretty good job at it. We have a CEO who makes fun of himself, and who will encourage you to tell him when he is wrong. In fact, he needs people to – we all do. Supportive challenge is good, it’s how we get better. We like getting better. We also love diversity, of all kinds. We need people who look, sound, speak, love, and exist differently from one another. This isn’t at the end of this paragraph because it’s an afterthought. It’s SO important to us we want it to stand out.
Right. On to the technical stuff that we know matters to you. We offer competitive pay that is commensurate with the market and relevant experience, and a full slate of benefits that even includes things like paid parental leave.
If any of this sounds interesting, then maybe we are a fit. Life is too short to work with people you don’t like. So whatever you do, don’t make that mistake.
The LivCorian Values
Be you. Be Real. Be Open. You do you. Together, we will do something amazing. Care, Always. We don’t want to let anyone down. Courageously Curious. We love to learn, even when it hurts. Help Others Win, Be A Good Neighbor. This is about ‘We, not Me.’ Relentless Hustle, Heart & Humility. Work hard. Be Kind. Make Better.
