Beyond The Bio: 16 Questions With VTS Co-Founder And CEO Nick RomitoThis series profiles men and women in commercial real estate who have profoundly transformed our neighborhoods and reshaped our cities, businesses and lifestyles. When Nick Romito is not overseeing operations of the widely used leasing and asset management platform View The Space, which he founded eight years ago, he is surfing waves at nearby beaches, blasting Bruce Springsteen in the car with the windows rolled down or exploring with his 3-year-old son, Axel. The 35-year-old CEO is a commercial real estate veteran with more than a decade's worth of experience under his belt managing assets and brokering deals across the U.S. Prior to launching VTS, Romito worked at both Murray Hill Properties and AM Properties, and in 2009 he founded Titan Global Advisors. It was while at Titan that he noticed the gaping hole in the technology available to manage leases and centralize the deal process for all parties involved. Fast-forward a year, and Romito had started VTS to fill that need. |
