Sr. Real Estate Underwriting Analyst at SIP Ventures - US-based early-stage residential real estate development and investment firm (remote)
We usually respond within three days
Location: Remote
Reports to: Principal / Investment Lead
SIP Ventures is a New York-based real estate development and investment firm executing high-conviction strategies within the residential real estate sector through programmatic joint ventures. The firm focuses on acquiring and developing townhome and multifamily communities across the Southeast and Northeast United States. With an active deal pipeline and a lean, technology-forward approach to underwriting and operations, SIP Ventures is building out a high-performance analytical team to scale with the business.
Role Overview
The Sr. Real Estate Underwriting Analyst supports SIP Ventures' development and acquisitions platform through financial underwriting, deal analysis, market research, and investor communications.
This is a thinking-oriented, execution-focused role. The right person does not just plug numbers into models — they understand what the numbers mean, catch errors before they matter, and communicate findings clearly to partners.
This is not a passive data-entry position. Success is measured by analytical judgment, output quality, and the ability to operate with increasing independence.
Core Responsibilities
Underwriting & Financial Modeling
Input deal assumptions into existing underwriting models and tailor them by geography and asset type
Validate outputs and proactively flag results that don't make sense
Stress-test assumptions and interpret return metrics in context
Support deal flow processing across multiple active opportunities simultaneously
Market Research & Deal Analysis
Research market-level assumptions (rents, costs, comps, supply/demand dynamics) for each deal
Synthesize findings into clear, structured inputs for the underwriting model
Identify when assumptions are off-market and recommend adjustments
Investor Materials & Presentations
Translate underwriting outputs into concise investor memos and PowerPoint presentations
Prepare deal summaries for investor partners with clean visuals and clear narrative
Support longer-form presentation materials as needed
Workflow & Process Support
Maintain deal pipeline documentation and file organization
Leverage AI tools (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT) to accelerate research and drafting tasks
Contribute to improving internal workflows and analytical processes over time
Required Qualifications
3–5 years of experience in US commercial or residential real estate underwriting, acquisitions, or financial analysis
Strong Excel skills — advanced formulas, financial modeling, assumption-driven analysis
Ability to interpret model outputs, not just build or populate them
Strong written English — capable of drafting investor-facing memos and presentations
Solid research skills and comfort working with market data
High attention to detail and deadline discipline
Ideal Profile
Conceptually strong in real estate — understands the asset class, not just the spreadsheet
Analytical and intellectually curious — asks "does this make sense?" before submitting
Clear communicator in writing and presentation format
Comfortable working independently in a fast-moving, lean team environment
Bonus: familiarity with AI tools; technical or engineering background is a strong plus
Growth & Development
This is a foundational hire for a growing platform. As the analyst builds trust and demonstrates strong judgment, there is a clear path to taking on greater ownership across deal evaluation, investor communication, and process architecture — including contributing to SIP Ventures' evolving tech and workflow infrastructure.
High performers will have meaningful exposure to live transactions and direct access to senior decision-makers within an active programmatic JV platform.
Working Hours
Full-time role with preferred overlap with US Eastern Time business hours. Flexibility for the right candidate — partial overlap (at minimum) is required for real-time collaboration.
What We Offer
Full-time remote position (Monday–Friday, 8 hours/day)
Remote work from any city with reliable internet and ability to align with US Eastern Time
Direct exposure to live US residential real estate development and investment transactions
Opportunity to grow within a lean, high-performance team at an early stage — your work will be visible and impactful from day one
