Spotlight: Rich Arnitz

Wally Smith:

Rich, I didn’t get to do much of a formal introduction, we just jumped right into it, but could you share a little bit with us about your … what, 30 years in the industry? Man, you’ve seen it all, you’ve worked in the REIT space, you’ve worked in individual space. I’m not asking you to blow your own horn so much, but tell us a little bit about the expertise that you bring to us.

Rich Arnitz:
Yeah, well I’m excited to be part of Ridgegate Financial. I’ve been in the real estate side of the market and the investment side of the market for a little over 30 years. I don’t want to date myself here, but I have been on the broker dealer side of the business working with clients and investments for the first half of my career and then I’ve been on the distributor side in the sense of putting these deals together. So really understanding from a due diligence standpoint how to package these programs for investors and clients as well in all aspects of commercial real estate over the last 20 years. And so I’m very, very excited to bring what I’ve learned over the last 30 years in a few recessions, dips in the markets to Ridgegate Financial and to the clients as well.
