Louis Reynolds Founder and Chief Executive Officer My Story Lou Reynolds began his real estate investing career in 1998, investing in both development and existing multifamily projects. Since that time, Lou has amassed a wealth of experience and a laudable resume of investment successes. Regardless of asset class, area or market challenge, Lou brings an uncanny ability to maximize an investments potential while minimizing downside risk.

In the early 2000’s, Lou began purchasing, rehabbing and successfully exiting multifamily properties in Hoboken, Jersey City, and other towns in New Jersey. In 2008, having recorded a substantial record of success in real estate, Lou eventually devoted his attention to real estate full time. Lou brings a wealth of real estate experience, investment knowledge and unwavering management focus in delivering on the potential available in a current real estate asset or development deal. Lou has a pedigree of over 100 successful purchase and sale transactions in the multifamily space, most of which concentrated in the value added or opportunistic area. Lou is adept at the physical and fiscal evaluation of any type of real estate investment; he has the breadth and depth of knowledge and tangible property management experience that allows him to quickly separate fact from fiction. From deal sourcing, deal modeling, evaluation and management, Lou brings a unique and laudable multidimensional skill set exemplified in the returns delivered to our investors.
