The Promise

Stop leaving the
bigger deals on
the table.

You already know how to close. The Commercial Pivot gives you the commercial operating system — so you can underwrite, speak to lenders, read land, and walk into rooms you used to refer out.

This isn't theory. It's the same discipline Yvonne uses advising owners, investors, and development stakeholders — distilled into a framework you can apply to your next opportunity.

Inside the
curriculum.

Four modules that rebuild how you see a deal — from listing to land.

01

The deal math that scales

Cap rates, NOI, underwriting, and the financial models that govern commercial value — made intuitive.

02

Reading land, zoning & entitlement

How to value what isn't built yet — use, zoning, entitlement risk, and development upside.

03

Capital stacks & lender conversations

Debt, equity, and the language that earns credibility with lenders and capital partners.

04

Positioning for bigger rooms

Personal positioning, deal sourcing, and the mindset shift from agent to strategist.

A working session,
not a webinar.

A representative flow of the live intensive.

Block 01

The CRE mindset

Why commercial rewards strategy over hustle — and how to retrain your instincts.

Block 02

Underwriting live

Walk a real deal from assumptions to value, line by line, together.

Block 03

Land & entitlement clinic

Read a site like a developer — constraints, upside, and the path to yes.

Block 04

Your 90-day pivot plan

Leave with a concrete plan to source and pursue your first commercial opportunity.

Yvonne Spencer, instructor of The Commercial Pivot

Yvonne Spencer · Founder, LeadHER CRE

Taught by

Someone who's done it at city scale.

Yvonne Spencer is a Memphis-based commercial real estate broker, development executive, and U.S. Army veteran with more than twenty years of executive leadership — including leadership involvement in the 455-acre Fort McPherson redevelopment in Atlanta.

She teaches The Commercial Pivot because the gap between residential and commercial isn't talent — it's language, frameworks, and confidence. This masterclass closes that gap.

"I'm not teaching you to find another listing. I'm teaching you to think like the person on the other side of the development table."
More about Yvonne

Questions, answered.

Residential agents, women in real estate, and emerging professionals ready to move into commercial brokerage, investments, land, and development. You don't need prior commercial experience — you need the willingness to learn a new operating system.

No. The masterclass is built to prepare you for your first commercial opportunity — including a 90-day plan to source and pursue one with confidence.

A live cohort intensive paired with a workbook and reusable frameworks, plus mentorship touchpoints. The emphasis is on working through real material — not passive lecture.

It's taught by a practitioner who has operated at development scale, and it's designed specifically for the residential-to-commercial pivot — the mindset shift, not just the mechanics.
