614.795.7424Richard Rieth
Richard is a graduate of The Ohio State University’s Fisher College of Business, where he specialized in Real Estate and Urban Analysis. Through his professional career, he has been engaged in every aspect of real estate, including valuation of existing assets, renovations of underperforming facilities, and the planning and development of new projects. His background and understanding of strategic objectives, economic realities, and on-going operations allows him to provide insight that can be relied upon while positioning projects for short- and long-term success.
As a Columbus resident and alum, saying Richard is an Ohio State fan would be an understatement – he once had a 15-year streak of attending every home football game. When he isn’t helping his clients realize their goals, he can be found playing tennis, working on home renovation projects, or attempting to become proficient in the culinary arts.
