Dallas-based property technology veteran to
help company accelerate growth in the residential real estate
industry
VeriFast, the AI-powered verification-as-a-service platform that
automates financial analysis and decision-making for tenant
screening, mortgage underwriting and other applications, today
announced the appointment of Ed Wolff to chair of its advisory
board. A seasoned property technology and multifamily industry
veteran, Wolff will leverage his deep multifamily technology
experience to guide VeriFast as the company moves to expand its
solutions to customers across North America.
Wolff is a recognized industry influencer and thought leader who
regularly speaks at conferences, webinars and podcasts on various
topics including best practices, operations, industry trends and
market updates. He currently serves as President & Chief
Revenue Officer for Aerwave, and was previously president of
insurance technology platform LeaseLock, where he spearheaded
exponential growth, surpassing $10 billion in insured leases and
serving more than 150 clients representing three million units. He
also served as President of LeasingDesk Insurance & Screening
at RealPage. Ed's professional background extends to several
executive roles on the property management side, including Chief
Operating Officer at Cortland, Chief Administrative Officer at
Pinnacle (now Cushman & Wakefield), as well as Place Properties
(now PeakMade). Ed holds a Master of Science in Technology
Management from Georgia Institute of Technology and a Bachelor of
Business Administration in Management from Hofstra University.
“I’m thrilled to join VeriFast’s advisory board at this critical
juncture,” said Wolff. “Mortgage lenders, property owners, and
residents are waking up to the fact that traditional, credit
score-based lending decisions are outdated, inaccurate - and often
discriminatory. VeriFast’s cashflow-based approach avoids these
pitfalls while providing unbeatable accuracy regarding a
candidate’s reliable ability to pay. We look forward to partnering
with fellow innovators in the multifamily and mortgage industries
to provide a better identity and financial verification
experience.”
“Ed is already proving to be a critical part of our growth
strategy,” said Tim Ray, co-founder and CEO of VeriFast. “His
extensive background in multifamily proptech and his documented
track record of success will help be invaluable as we continue to
build out our client-base and transform the mortgage lending and
resident screening processes.”
