Structuring an OpCo/PropCo Business Workshop
About this event
A two-day interactive workshop designed for real estate operators, entrepreneurs, and investors looking to structure or invest in OpCo/PropCo platforms.
Monday, September 15th: 12:00pm-1:30pm EDT
Tuesday, September 16th: 12:00pm-1:30pm EDT
Both sessions will be recorded
Over the two 90-minute live sessions, you’ll dive into real-world frameworks, explore new case studies, and walk away with practical tools to apply to your own ventures.
Participants will receive pre-read materials, including case studies and frameworks, and gain post-course access to Circle, where we’ll share recorded videos, sample term sheets, and curated resources.
You’ll learn how to:
Understand the OpCo/PropCo model—how and why companies separate real estate from operations.
Structure OpCo/PropCo capital stacks—mapping investor profiles, deal terms, and governance structures.
Evaluate case studies of successful platforms—learning from hospitality, logistics, housing, and niche real estate sectors.
Develop a GTM strategy—walking through real-world investor conversations.
You’ll leave with a sharper lens for evaluating and executing these structures—whether you’re launching a platform, investing in one, or advising a founder.
