Real Estate for Engineers (and anyone who prefers an analytical approach!)

I’m going to go over different ways to think about and approach real estate investing and the math behind it. Whether it’s buying your primary residence, deciding to sell/rent your home, or buying rental properties, I'll show you some math to help you make educated decisions every step of the way!

We’ll cover how purchasing a primary residence differs from buying an investment property, both in terms of the features that matter and the numbers you should run like CAP rate and measuring cash-on-cash return. You’ll also learn how the offer process works, strategies to consider when competing in the Bay Area market, and frameworks for making the big-picture decision: rent vs. buy, or if you’re moving, sell vs. rent out your home. We’ll also look at some data from the SF market we can use along the way.

I'm Kristal Pollack, former software engineer, real estate investor, and Realtor at The Swann Group in SF, part of Coldwell Banker Global Luxury.
