Today I’m I sitting down with Scott Arnoldy, Founder & CEO of Triten RE Partners, to explore his journey from the frothy real estate markets of the mid-2000s to building Triten into a multi-vertical investment and development firm with ~$2B in investment volume.
We talk about the lessons he learned at Goldman and Stockbridge during the GFC, the early days of striking out on his own, and how he’s evolved from being a dealmaker to focusing on building a scalable business. Scott shares his perspective on industrial outdoor storage, multifamily opportunities, and why leadership and team building have become his greatest priorities.
We discuss:
<ul>
 <li>
How the leverage-driven deals of the mid-2000s shaped Scott’s risk mindset
</li>
 <li>
The transition from opportunistic projects to building a long-term business with structure and focus
</li>
 <li>
The evolution of Triton’s investment approach, from value-add office to iOS and multifamily
</li>
 <li>
Why storytelling and clarity matter as much as numbers when raising capital
</li>
 <li>
Perspectives on the current real estate cycle, market uncertainty, and where compelling opportunities exist today
