AdventuresinCRE.com (A.CRE) was started by Spencer Burton and Michael Belasco during their first year of graduate real estate studies at Cornell University. The site was initially meant to fill a need for readily available resources online related to real estate financial modeling and Masters in Real Estate programs. It also was a tool for the two to expand their knowledge, network, and improve their writing capabilities.

Over the years, the site has grown to cover other topics its readers have asked for. A.CRE focuses on sharing quality content around three main areas our readers care most about: 1) learning and using advanced concepts in real estate financial modeling, 2) gaining and enhancing skills used in commercial real estate via formal and informal education, and 3) preparing for and advancing a career in commercial real estate together with a comprehensive job board with hundreds of CRE jobs.
