  • How Rey Built a $1B Real Estate Platform Founder Scaling Strategies & Negotiation Insights
    Feb 17 2026

    In this episode of the Capital Raiser Show, hosted by Richard C. Wilson and powered by Family Office Club, we sit down with RT "Rey" Treviño III, President of Pecos Valley Partners, for a deep dive into scaling, risk management, and long-term wealth creation through energy investments.

    Interviewed by Lisa Carmen Wang, Rey shares how his third-generation investment firm has navigated volatility, structured LP partnerships, and built a platform generating strong annual returns — while positioning for long-term U.S. energy dominance.

    Inside this conversation:

    • How Rey scaled a billion-dollar real asset platform

    • Why legacy oil & gas assets may offer overlooked upside

    • The operator advantage: cutting costs and increasing transparency

    • How LPs can access active tax deductions in energy deals

    • Risk mitigation strategies in volatile commodity markets

    • Why AI, data centers, and energy demand are reshaping the future

    • The role of oil & gas in long-term American energy leadership

    Rey breaks down the numbers behind conventional drilling strategies, targeting 18–24 month capital recovery windows, and explains why patience and disciplined underwriting matter more than daily oil prices.

    If you're a family office, accredited investor, or capital raiser exploring real asset exposure, this episode offers a candid look at how experienced operators evaluate deals, structure partnerships, and think generationally.
