Commercial Real Estate Mentorship Program
NTCAR’s mentorship program offers a unique platform for aspiring professionals to connect with seasoned CRE practitioners, facilitating growth and knowledge exchange within the commercial real estate industry.
Overview
A 6-month mentorship program (October 2025-March 2026) that pairs participants with Dallas-area commercial real estate professionals across industrial, multi-family, office, and retail categories.
Mentees and Industry Professionals will be paired with the intent of meeting once a month to equip participants with the tools they need to thrive in their careers and contribute to the continued success of the North Texas commercial real estate community.
Why Participate?
Mentors can help you navigate your career path as they share lessons learned from their own experiences, help you identify and work towards long-term goals, and provide objective perspective.
Networking with experienced industry professionals can help a mentee deepen their understanding of different specialties and career paths within commercial real estate and introduce them to best practices, helping them refine their focus and grow their expertise.
Pairing Process
Mentors and mentees will be matched through an interview process to ensure alignment based on asset class, interests, and professional aspirations.
Commitment
Mentors and mentees should plan to meet for at least one hour once per month to build a strong and consistent mentoring relationship.
Regular check-ins will be conducted throughout the program to ensure that mentorship goals are being met.
