Jonathan Livi graduated from Yeshiva University with honors in 2017, with a bachelors degree in economics. He found his niche in structured real estate finance out of college, while working at a start up mortgage brokerage company. Since then, he’s been aggressively helping his clients source JV and preferred equity in every asset class. At the same time, he has been advising high net worth individuals from his community on how to build a downside protected, diversified real estate portfolio. Doing so has given him a unique perspective on the needs of both operator, and capital on any real estate transaction.
Jonathan also serves as an assistant Rabbi for the UMJCA, the United Mashadi Jewish Community of America. His passions include studying and teaching the Bible and working on large good-works projects on behalf of his local community. He resides in Great Neck, NY with his wife Kayla.
