The multifamily investment sector continues to capture attention from institutional investors, family offices, and private equity sponsors seeking durable income streams. As market cycles evolve, the focus on asset optimization has become increasingly critical. This November, Diego Hurtado, Owner of Navio Consulting, will share his expertise at the NCC IQ “ReInvested: Navigating Growth, Risk, and Return in U.S. Multifamily Real Estate” virtual event.
Taking place November 15-16, 2023, the conference brings together more than 40 influential voices, including executives, investors, developers, and technology innovators shaping the future of multifamily real estate. Participants will gain direct exposure to strategies that drive returns, mitigate risk, and create lasting value across portfolios.
Diego Hurtado’s Role in Multifamily Investment
As the founder of Navio Consulting, a Florida-based boutique advisory firm, Diego Hurtado has established a reputation for structuring and managing real estate investment funds across the United States. His expertise spans syndications, private equity, debt funds, and capital raising strategies. In addition, his experience as a licensed Realtor® and advisor in multifamily operations, private lending, underwriting, and fund administration positions him as a trusted voice for both operators and capital allocators.
At the conference, Hurtado will participate in the panel session “From Dated to Desired: Renovation Strategies for Multifamily Units” scheduled for November 15, 1:30-2:20 PM EST. His perspective will highlight how targeted renovations not only improve tenant retention and rental growth but also deliver measurable returns for sponsors and investors.
Renovation as a Value Creation Strategy
Renovation is not merely cosmetic. Well-planned capital improvements can reposition an asset, extend its lifecycle, and attract higher-quality tenants. In a market environment where interest rates and cap rates remain under pressure, operational improvements and renovation strategies provide a disciplined path toward higher net operating income (NOI).
Hurtado’s panel will explore the balance between capital expenditure, rental premiums, and market absorption rates. Investors and operators attending this session will benefit from practical frameworks on how to evaluate renovations that align with long-term investment objectives.
