- Bachelor’s degree in finance, real estate, economics, accounting, or business — or equivalent practical experience.
- 5+ years of commercial real estate underwriting, acquisitions, investment analysis, or asset-management experience.
- Advanced Excel and financial-modeling capability, including cash-flow projections, debt modeling, sensitivities, and return analysis.

- Strong attention to detail, and the instinct to trace every output back to source data.
- Ability to run multiple active opportunities and deadlines without losing control of follow-up.
- Strong written and verbal communication.
- Based in, or willing to relocate to, the Las Vegas / Henderson area.
Nice to have
- Self-storage, car-wash, multi-site operating business, or other operationally intensive real estate experience.
- Hands-on experience with Cowork, Claude Code, Codex, or comparable AI tooling, including structured prompting, workflow automation, or output validation.
- Comfort working with structured data, APIs, SQL, Python, or business-intelligence tools.
- Experience improving underwriting templates, investment-committee materials, or acquisition pipeline systems.

Senior Underwriter — AI-Enabled Investment AnalysisLocation: Las Vegas / Henderson, Nevada — onsite, with periodic travel for site visits and market tours
Employment type: Full-time, exempt
Reports to: Chief Executive Officer
About the Role
Real Capital is looking for a technically fluent Senior Underwriter to drive acquisitions and investment decisions across our self-storage and express car-wash platforms. You will independently evaluate opportunities, own and improve our underwriting models, keep the acquisition pipeline moving, and help build the governed AI workflows that make our investment process faster and more consistent.
This is a high-visibility seat. You will work directly with the CEO, present your own analysis to investors and the investment committee, and set the underwriting standards that future analysts will follow. You will also be the person who translates underwriting judgment into documented, testable systems — the work that determines how much deal volume our acquisitions team can carry.
Who You Are
You are an underwriter first. You can spot weak source data, challenge assumptions, explain what actually drives returns, and defend your own underwriting in front of investors. You are a self-starter who wants to win, and you are genuinely curious about getting better at the craft.
You are comfortable with AI tools and structured data today, and you want to go considerably deeper — we will invest in building that expertise. You bring prior experience with, or at least general exposure to, APIs and workflow automation.
