About Tony
Tony's Work
Tony Rishell is a private wealth real estate consultant who partners with families to assess, plan, and implement multigenerational real estate wealth strategies. These real estate families lean on his experience to shape a comprehensive estate plan with their legal, tax, and financial advisors. Succession considerations follow, both within the family trust framework and in entity governance. Family meetings are facilitated, and the family culture is promoted. All the while, Tony works with the family leaders to integrate structured asset management practices in a way that supports estate and succession plans, so that family partners and inheritors have greater confidence in the operation of the portfolio.
Tony is particularly passionate about coaching the rising generation of family leaders, whether this is into trust administration, real estate asset management, property performance, or family governance. He leans on strong relationships and simple, clear cash flow analytics to help families make prudent decisions for their real estate legacy.
Professional Experience
Prior to starting his consultancy Tony worked for twenty years with his family's enterprise, managing and preparing multifamily and commercial property in Uptown Oakland for redevelopment. He then worked with a corporate trustee for five years as a real estate asset manager, navigating complex client relationships with affluent, HNW, and UHNW families to oversee real estate portfolios going through estate settlement or long-term trust administration.
