Grant Drzyzga
Grant Drzyzga is the founder and CEO of Revela, a Detroit-based property management software company he started in 2014 with $50,000 and no real estate experience. After bootstrapping for roughly nine and a half years, he raised a $9 million Series A led by FirstMark Capital in November 2023. Revela now serves more than 200,000 units and has become one of the largest lenders to property managers in cities like Detroit, St. Louis, and Gary. Drzyzga's pitch is that real estate software should be built 'from the books out' - accounting first - and that embedded financial services can bring liquidity to a market that has long been low-margin and illiquid.
