About Us

Our Background

Reina Property Group is a real estate advisory and brokerage firm delivering institutional-grade financial modeling, strategic underwriting, and investor presentation support. With roots in real estate investment banking, private equity, and corporate development, we partner with sponsors, developers, and investment managers to accelerate capital formation and enhance decision-making across the investment lifecycle.

Having supported over $1.5 billion in transactions, our work spans acquisitions, ground-up developments, recapitalizations, and value-add strategies across multifamily, hospitality, industrial, retail, and self-storage sectors.

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.

Leadership

Christian Reina

Founder & CEO

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 Hilton, Wynn Resorts, Caesars Entertainment, and Carnival Corporation—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.

In addition to client advisory work, Christian has played a pivotal role in mentoring and training aspiring professionals from top-tier academic institutions. 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.
