Yishai Cohen
Yishai Cohen is the co-founder and CEO of Landa, a New York fintech that tried to turn houses into stocks - letting anyone buy a share of a rental home for as little as $5. A teenage entrepreneur from Jerusalem who sold his first company (a bus-booking marketplace) before finishing military service, Cohen raised roughly $100M and amassed some 400 properties across seven U.S. markets. By 2025 the platform had gone dark amid lender lawsuits, missed dividends, and the loss of much of its portfolio.
Sachin Latawa
Sachin Latawa is the founder and CEO of Tirios, an Austin-based proptech platform that lets everyday people invest in single-family rental homes for as little as $100. Before building Tirios, he ran real estate for Carl Icahn's empire as CFO of Real Estate at Icahn Enterprises, where he managed more than $1.1 billion in assets across homebuilding, distressed assets, resorts, offices and industrial property. He now pairs that institutional pedigree with AI-driven underwriting and blockchain tokenization to crack open a $10 trillion asset class that, by his own count, only about 5% of people can actually reach.
