30-year commercial real estate professional previously held management-level development, leasing and operations roles with MRP Industrial and Liberty Property Trust
Falls Church, VA (September 10, 2026) – Lisa Goodwin has joined 1788 Holdings, LLC, a privately-owned real estate investment firm which owns and manages a diversified and highly-differentiated national portfolio spanning 13 states, as Principal. The 30-year commercial real estate professional has responsibility for building and overseeing the firm’s institutional investment platform and driving growth through acquisition activity and cultivating new investor relationships with groups seeking exposure to mid-size industrial projects located in primary and secondary industrial markets. Goodwin spent the last nine years as Senior Vice President, Development at MRP Industrial.
1788 Holdings focuses on the identification, acquisition, asset management oversight, and repositioning of industrial/warehouse and Industrial Outside Storage (IOS) properties located in primary and secondary markets throughout the country. The Northern Virginia-based group owns and manages approximately 40 assets, comprising more than two million square feet of space - including 88 IOS acres - with a market value exceeding $250 million.
Goodwin will set the strategic direction of 1788 Holdings’ institutional investment platform and have direct oversight of capital raising and value creation activities related to overall portfolio performance. This includes establishing and strengthening relationships in the commercial real estate brokerage community, capital markets sector, and with property owners and investors.
“Joining the 1788 Holdings team provides the perfect opportunity to leverage the extensive business and real estate relationships I have established, work with an entrepreneurial-driven team, and help identify emerging opportunities which provide undeniable value to our investors,” Goodwin said. “The company consistently demonstrates the ability to acquire assets that need redevelopment or repositioning strategies, due to being mis-marketed, under- leased, under- managed, or under- invested, and to then employ tactics that unlock value to benefit its investor partners. We see a long runway ahead, and intend to remain aggressive in our approach to attract capital to fuel our future acquisition pipeline.”
Goodwin adds that 1788 Holdings has historically funded its acquisitions utilizing a proprietary high net worth investor syndicate that has largely capped its acquisition size at assets priced at $20 million and below. The new corporate strategy entails augmenting that focus by pairing larger capital partners that have business plans similar to those that 1788 Holdings has previously executed, to target larger asset sizes and pricing denominations which were beyond 1788 Holdings’ reach under its high-net-worth investor-funded platform.
“This pivot will enable me to focus on an untapped segment of the market for 1788 Holdings, and our core team is completely capable of supporting both platforms comfortably,” she said.
During Goodwin’s time at MRP Industrial, a Maryland-based commercial real estate development and investment company, she assisted in the efforts to acquire multiple land sites in Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia, and was responsible for the leasing of nearly nine million square feet of space across the company’s portfolio of developments.
Previous to MRP Industrial, Goodwin spent nearly 10 years overseeing all development, acquisitions, leasing, and asset and property management functions for Liberty Property Trust’s (NYSE: LRY) Maryland regional office as Vice President. This included the development of nearly two million square feet of space. She also handled asset management functions for New Boston Fund and Archon Group.
