HOUSTON, Aug. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Venterra Realty recently announced the appointment of Steve Fritzer as Director of Development. In this role, Steve will spearhead Venterra's development of purpose-built rental home communities (Build-to-Rent) throughout Texas. Steve will be responsible for sourcing sites, design, construction oversight, and supporting Venterra's internal teams to successfully lease up communities.
With a distinguished 30-year career, Steve brings a wealth of experience in development and construction management roles to Venterra. His versatile development portfolio spans asset classes including 55+ active living, hotels, grocery-anchored plazas, retail stores, and more. Steve's most recent experience with a leading Build-to-Rent developer in Texas allowed him to hone his expertise in creating rental communities of single-family homes and townhomes that resonate with modern living standards.
In addition to this primary focus on Build for Rent projects, Steve will help Venterra explore other product types (i.e. 55+ active living) and pursue larger master-planned land developments. We are excited about the experience and versatility Steve brings to an already deep and successful development team that will allow us to expand our residential product breadth and continue growing our development pipeline across our Texas markets.
"Steve's appointment marks a significant milestone for Venterra as we expand our residential product line," said Venterra CEO, John Foresi.
