Real Estate Associate

$240k - $300k

Hawkstone Search

Real Estate Finance | AM200 | Chicago | $240,000-$300,000

I'm continuing to work with an AM200 firm following a recent successful appointment within their Capital Markets team, as they look to strengthen their Real Estate platform.

The practice is ranked by Legal 500 US (Elite, Chicago) and holds a National Tier 2 ranking for Real Estate Law in Best Law Firms 2026.

They're looking for a mid-level Real Estate Finance associate to join the Chicago team.

What stands out:

  • Lender and investor-side work on sophisticated financings: permanent, construction and mezzanine loan transactions
  • Exposure across a broad range of asset classes, including commercial, healthcare, automotive, office, multifamily, retail and industrial
  • Partnership-track opportunity inside an established, growing practice, with increasing responsibility and close work alongside experienced Partners
  • Direct involvement in acquisitions, dispositions and commercial leasing (office, retail, warehouse and industrial)
  • Strong compensation ($240k–$300k base, experience-dependent)

If you have 3–5 years of real estate finance experience representing lenders and investors, hold a J.D. with strong academic credentials, and are admitted in (or working toward admission in) Illinois, this is a conversation worth having before year end.
