Today I'm giving thanks for Seth Rosenfeld and Charles Wong.
Seth and the team at Canaccord Genuity served as our investment banker when we evaluated options and ultimately sold to Lone Wolf.
In 2021, we were going to embark on a dual track process – meaning we would explore raising a PE-led growth round on the one hand and exploring potential acquisition options on the other. Ultimately, Lone Wolf got to us before we we were able to fully kick off that process.
A lot of people asked how I found Seth. It was a simple process. I took a look at transactions that had occurred in residential real estate tech, had someone look up those companies on Pitchbook, and identified who served as the investment banker on each transaction. I also asked other founders for references. From there, I had conversations with a little over a half-dozen firms. Seth and team stood out in the selection process for several reasons.
Seth and Charles were both super helpful in ensuring we were very organized along the way and were able to close on such an expedited timeframe. Also, I have to say- Charles is an artist and his medium is Excel. He’s a savant.
Seth and Charles- thank you for your leadership in bringing us to a timely close.
