On this episode of Best Ever CRE, Joe Cornwell interviews Ari Rastegar, founder of Rastegar Capital, about his journey from law school to building a vertically integrated real estate firm. Ari shares how he got his start in real estate by developing a single-family home during law school, which evolved into a focus on zoning, entitlement, and large-scale developments across Texas. He breaks down the strategic value of land rezoning, lessons learned from leveraging debt, and how his firm partners with major institutions while maintaining rigorous risk controls. Ari also emphasizes the importance of third-party fund administration and institutional-grade governance—even for small operators.
