TruAmerica Multifamily, a leading multifamily investment firm based in Los Angeles, has announced the launch of its new structured finance vertical. This strategic initiative is designed to complement their flagship value-add investment platform. To spearhead this effort, the firm has appointed Ash Baraghoush as senior managing director. This follows on the heels of TruAmerica’s affordable housing vertical which was launched in mid-January.
The structured finance vertical will utilize TruAmerica’s national footprint to offer preferred equity and mezzanine debt options for multifamily properties. These offerings are aimed at meeting market demand amidst rising interest rates and continued disruptions in capital markets.
“We are excited to have Ash join our team during such an exciting time for TruAmerica,” said Robert Hart, President & CEO of TruAmercia.” His expertise in structured finance will allow us to expand our platform and create new opportunities that benefit both our investment strategies and the communities we serve.”
Baraghoush brings deep experience developing and managing structured finance platforms from his previous role at Pacific Urban Investors before joining TruAmercia. He also spent three years at Ares Management prior to that.
