This INREV online course will address current issues and best practices in the due diligence process for non-listed real estate investments in the context of today's markets. The online course consists of a series of five sessions taking place between 2 and 10 March 2021.

After these sessions the course will dive deeper into specific topics related to legal and tax due diligence, operational due diligence as well as the role of risk management and ESG.
