A.CRE Accelerator — Mastering MS Excel for Real Estate

This skill packages the A.CRE Accelerator's Mastering MS Excel for Real Estate endorsement into an Agent Skill so an AI assistant can teach a member the Excel functions, features, and techniques that actually matter for commercial-real-estate financial modeling. It is a teaching tool, not an underwriting engine: when a member wants to use a finished A.CRE model on a real deal, route them to the relevant operator skill (e.g. apartment-acquisition-model-v25).

Full instructions and any reference files ship in the .skill bundle.
