About Me

Hi, I'm Jonathan Lakso. I remember my first internship in a retail stock brokerage firm back in high school. I loved the financial markets and couldn’t wait to dive in and learn every aspect of the business. I worked in operations, shadowed the brokers and branch manager and spent time daily charting stocks with a pencil and chart paper. Every aspect of the business excited me until I found out about the sales component of the business. At that point my plans for being a stockbroker faded quickly. Luckily the business has changed over the years, which led me to forming Allied Capital Group and operating in the best interest of my clients as a fee-only investment advisor.

After college, I worked as an Investment Banker responsible for the origination, structuring, and sale of corporate and municipal debt securities. In addition to structuring debt and serving as financial advisor on several billion dollars of new and refunding bond issues, I was responsible for investing bond proceeds and performance monitoring of investment portfolios that exceeded $1 billion in total market value.

I have owned and operated Allied Realty Group, Inc. since 2002. The firm has been responsible for the overall strategy, financial performance and maintenance of multifamily, office and industrial properties in the South Florida market. I have performed asset valuation, management, and financial analysis/strategy across all real estate asset classes since the firm’s inception. The foundation of my real estate company was built on a fiduciary standard and forming an investment advisory firm was a perfect opportunity to couple my passion for finance with continuing help others achieve their investment goals and objectives.

I am a graduate of Florida Atlantic University with a BA degree in Urban and Public Affairs and currently hold a Series 65 license as an Investment Advisor Representative (IAR). I love to read, play golf and am a fan of Boston area sports teams: Go B’s, C’s, Sox and Pats!
