December Highlights: Key Moments from Rise48 Equity’s Social Media Posts
December at Rise48 Equity highlighted culture, leadership, and community impact across our organization. Early in the month, our team was recognized as one of Arizona’s 2025 Best Places to Work, ranking #12 in the small business category, a meaningful reflection of the positive, team-driven culture our employees continue to build every day. In Scottsdale, our CEO & Co-Founder, Zach Haptonstall, joined industry leaders at the IMN Middle Market Multifamily Conference to discuss today’s transaction environment, sharing operational insights and perspectives on navigating market conditions while identifying strong opportunities. And through our Rise Up Give Back Food Drive, our Arizona corporate and on-site teams came together to collect more than 1,544 pounds of food for St. Vincent de Paul, supporting families across the Phoenix MSA and reinforcing our commitment to service beyond the workplace. From industry leadership to employee recognition and community contribution, December reflected our continued focus on people, performance, and purposeful growth.
We’re excited to share that Rise48 Equity has been named one of Arizona’s 2025 Best Places to Work! Based on employee survey results, we proudly ranked #12 out of 195 companies in the small business category.
A huge thank you to the Phoenix Business Journal for hosting such an incredible event and for recognizing the many outstanding companies across the Valley. We’re honored to be included among such inspiring organizations.
We couldn’t do this without our incredible team, and we remain committed to fostering a positive, supportive, and engaging workplace culture.

Rise48 Equity CEO & Co-Founder, Zach Haptonstall, participated as a panelist at the IMN Middle Market Multifamily Conference in Scottsdale.
The session brought together operators to discuss the realities of today’s transaction environment from shifting valuations and capital markets pressure to evolving underwriting expectations. Zach shared operational insights from the Rise48 and how we’re navigating current conditions while continuing to identify and execute on strong opportunities.
We appreciate the organizers, fellow panelists, and attendees for contributing to a productive and insightful session.
Our Rise Up Give Back 2025 Food Drive wrapped up earlier this month, and we couldn’t be more proud of the impact our Arizona corporate and on-site teams made together.
With everyone’s support, we collected over 1,544 pounds of food for St. Vincent de Paul, helping families across the Phoenix MSA.
We also added a little friendly competition… congrats to the Founders Team – Zach, Bikran, and Robert, for leading the pack with the highest number of donations!
Huge thank you to all of our team members who donated and helped make this year’s drive a success!
