About Us
Our Background
Reina Property Group is a real estate investment consulting firm specializing in institutional-grade financial modeling, investor presentations, and strategic capital support. We serve as a fractional investment team to sponsors, developers, and investment platforms—streamlining underwriting, fundraising, and execution without expanding internal headcount.
Our team brings experience across real estate investment banking, private equity, corporate development, brokerage, and as owner/operators. This experience has given us deep expertise in capital markets and a practical understanding of asset management complexities.
With over $1.5 billion in transaction experience across all major asset classes, our team delivers fast, precise, investor-ready materials tailored to each deal’s capital structure and business plan. Whether supporting acquisitions, recapitalizations, or dispositions, we operate with the speed and sophistication of an internal team—without the overhead.
Our Mission
Reina Property Group was built around a critical market insight: emerging sponsors, despite their ambition and potential, often lack access to the institutional tools and execution capabilities enjoyed by larger platforms.
We exist to close that gap.
Too often, high-potential firms are forced to rely on internal teams stretched thin or external advisors who lack the analytical depth and polish required by today’s capital markets. RPG delivers a different standard—bringing the same level of rigor, clarity, and strategic precision typically found at top-tier investment firms.
Our mission is to democratize institutional-grade execution—empowering clients of all sizes to raise capital, articulate investment theses, and operate with sophistication.
From dynamic financial models and investor-ready materials to bespoke capital structuring and underwriting, we equip our clients to compete—and win—at the highest level.

Chief Executive Officer
Christian Reina
Christian Reina is the Founder and CEO of Reina Property Group. He began his career in real estate investment banking at Deutsche Bank, which included a coverage universe of public and private companies across the real estate, gaming, lodging, and leisure sectors—including REITs, Hilton, Wynn Resorts, Caesars Entertainment, and Carnival Corporation—advising on capital markets and M&A transactions.
Following his time at Deutsche Bank, Christian joined Maverick Real Estate Partners, a New York-based private equity firm, where he oversaw a portfolio of more than $300 million in distressed debt secured by commercial properties across New York City. His experience spans over $1.5 billion in real estate transactions, including ground-up developments, recapitalizations, note acquisitions, and joint ventures.

His guidance has supported undergraduate, MBA, and Master of Real Estate Development students from universities such as NYU, Cornell, USC, Columbia, Georgetown, and UMiami. Many of these individuals have successfully broken into leading firms like Blackstone, J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and Newmark, while others have gone on to launch their own development companies and real estate private equity funds. Through a combination of technical mastery, institutional insight, and practical career coaching, Christian has helped shape the next generation of leaders across investment banking, private equity, and development.
Christian earned his B.A. in Economics, cum laude, with a minor in Sociology from Middlebury College, where he was team captain for Middlebury’s D1-AA rugby team. Outside of work, he enjoys distance running, swimming, weightlifting, and playing chess.
