James Faillettaz is an entrepreneur who treats real estate like a living system: get the data right, build the right habits, and value compounds. He began trading stocks at 12, later studying economics, philosophy, and statistics and participating in NSF‑funded research that sharpened his analytical edge. During his junior year he sold his entire stock portfolio to pursue real estate, launching what became Verus Praedium Holding.

At Verus Praedium, James blends rigorous three‑statement forecasting with practical, block‑by‑block execution to find neighborhoods with strong fundamentals and properties with untapped potential. The result: well‑managed, cash‑flowing rentals that are attainable for residents and resilient for investors. His north star is simple—create clean, safe, fairly priced housing and let excellence pay for itself over time. Where spreadsheets meet street smarts, James builds assets that strengthen communities.
