Verus Praedium Holding’s approach to real estate investing identifies neighborhoods with both attractive aspects (entertainment, employment, parks, etc.) and properties with potential for long-term increase of value, rental rates, and equity. Verus Praedium invests mindfully, producing profitable rental properties while also aiding renters in their access to quality, affordable housing. This investment strategy improves neighborhoods' livability and attractiveness through well-maintained and profitable rental units that are accessible to each area’s existing community.

CEO & Founder

James Faillettaz, CEO & FounderJames has always been fascinated with the movement of money. This fascination led to James trading stock at age 12, and eventually resulted in a degree in economics, statistics, and philosophy from St. Olaf College. His curiosity in real estate grew as his interest in the stock market declined. Having been entrepreneurial most of his life, James was attracted to building a successful company himself, rather than investing in somebody else’s established company. With this shift in ideology, he decided to sell his entire stock portfolio and purchase his first property as he entered his senior year at St. Olaf; by the end of his senior year, Verus Praedium holding was established and the rest has yet to be written.
