Raymond James expands western housing bench with Goldberg hire

Raymond James is expanding its public finance capabilities with the hiring of veteran multifamily housing finance banker Greg Goldberg to lead coverage for multifamily housing clients in the western United States.

Goldberg, who is based in Denver and will hold the title of director, most recently worked for RBC Capital Markets as director of U.S. municipal finance housing for the past six years. Prior to RBC, he was at Citi Community Capital, Capmark Finance and Newman Associates.

He has significant expertise in public offerings, private placements as well as with bank and agency debt products for affordable and workforce housing, according to Raymond James. He has arranged financings for hundreds of affordable, mixed income and senior housing projects as well as community facilities with an aggregate par value of over $3 billion, according to his RBC bio.

"Greg's extensive experience in providing tax-exempt financing for multifamily housing sponsors, including private developers, nonprofits and governmental owners, is a nice complement to our national housing finance practice," Gavin Murrey, executive vice president and head of public finance/debt investment banking at Raymond James, said in a statement.

Goldberg holds a bachelor's degree in political science from the University of Colorado and an MBA from Loyola University of Chicago.

"Greg is known for thinking outside the box to find innovative financing solutions to achieve his clients' financing objectives," Murrey said. "His addition demonstrates Raymond James' continued commitment to building one of the preeminent housing finance teams in the U.S. as we broaden our geographic coverage."

"I'm looking forward to helping Raymond James expand the reach of its housing practice and create sorely needed affordable and workforce housing," Goldberg said in a statement. "Raymond James' housing group is one of the most respected in the industry, and I'm excited to be a part of their successful team."

Raymond James has more than 180 people working in public finance in 40 locations across the country, according to the firm.

In 2025, the team senior managed 609 negotiated and competitive issues with a total par value of more than $29 billion, according to the firm. It has been among the top 10 municipal bond underwriters for the past two years, according to LSEG data.

In 2025, Raymond James underwrote 69 affordable housing bonds with an aggregate par amount of over $4 billion, according to the release. Over the past 10 years, the firm said it has syndicated over $13.1 billion nationally in low-income tax credit equity for 1,000 projects providing 88,000 affordable apartment homes.
