The Real Estate Development Analyst reports directly to the VP/Director of Real Estate and is responsible for overseeing the Real Estate activities of J29:7. As a Real Estate Analyst, you will provide critical financial analysis and modeling support for commercial real estate projects, with a focus on securing financing through tools like LIHTC and other incentives. You will work closely with internal teams and clients to evaluate development opportunities, create proformas, and develop financing strategies for complex, high-impact urban projects. Your role is essential in ensuring the financial viability of projects that align with our mission of advancing housing and economic justice. We work all across the country with an emphasis on Faith-Based Organizations (FBOs), but not exclusively.
We are seeking a dynamic and detail-oriented Real Estate Analyst with a strong background in commercial real estate finance and development, including LIHTC and incentive-driven projects. The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced environments, has advanced financial modeling skills, and can handle multiple complex projects under tight deadlines. You will collaborate with clients to create financing scenarios, secure project funding, and provide strategic analysis for urban development initiatives. If you’re passionate about housing justice, possess strong communication skills, and want to contribute to projects that drive social impact, we’d love to hear from you! You will have an opportunity to work with our urban planning team to create comprehensive plans with real estate projects that will have transformative effects on communities across the country.
At J29:7, we are a diverse and passionate team of professionals dedicated to making a significant difference in underserved communities through our expertise in urban planning, architecture, construction, real estate development, and community engagement. We firmly believe in the power of inclusive neighborhood development and addressing systemic issues to create equitable and thriving communities.
Our firm takes a holistic approach to community master planning, recognizing that successful development extends beyond physical infrastructure. We understand that sustainable and transformative change requires a comprehensive understanding of social, economic, and environmental factors that shape communities. By integrating the expertise of architects, construction-oriented professionals, real estate developers, and community specialists, we bring a multidisciplinary perspective to our projects. We rise early and stay late because we are passionately driven by the work that we do. But make no mistake about it, we all left “jobs” when we stepped into our roles at J29:7 to pursue purpose in the communities that we’ve been called to serve and you couldn’t pay us enough to be doing what we have fun doing daily.
We currently have an active and growing pipeline of more than 600 multi-family units and $200M in investment activity. Our planning and design studio is currently engaged in developing 3 community plans that have the potential to produce an additional $300M+ of real estate development activities over the next 5 years.
