About

History

The Lied Center for Real Estate (formerly Lied Institute for Real Estate Studies) was established in 1989 by the College of Business (now the Lee Business School) at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas to foster excellence in real estate education and research.

The center was endowed in 1991 through a generous gift and a challenge grant from the Ernst F. Lied Foundation Trust. Through partnerships with business and community leaders, the Lied Center strives to improve real estate business and effective public-policy practices in Southern Nevada.
