In this episode of Real Talk, I sit down with Gidi Cohen. Gidi is the founder and CEO of CGI+ Real Estate Investment Strategies (“CGI+), a Los Angeles-based multifamily investment and development firm with nearly $2 billion in assets under management (AUM). Over the course of his nearly three decades as a principal investor and developer, Gidi has been involved in the development, acquisition and disposition of multifamily, commercial, industrial and retail space throughout the United States with a value in excess of $3 billion.

Highlights from our conversation:

* How growing up on a farm in Israel and serving as an Israeli Navy Seal helped shape Gidi’s personal and professional life

* Just because he may be talking loudly, does not mean he’s yelling at you.

* Keys to navigating thru a downturn in the real estate market

* Focusing on legacy multi-family assets on the West Coast and South East.
