Steve Schmitz Biography

Steve is a compelling speaker and an accomplished agent who saw a fresh open door amid a financial need and pursued it. He discusses his personal story of business success, failure, and lessons gained. He is engaging and dynamic in each speech he delivers. He inspires audiences to consider the importance of developing a strong corporate culture, and he inspires pioneers to share their vision and excitement with every colleague they serve. Steve tells his own company career in his book Whatever It Takes (released in 2017), founding American Residential Properties Inc. with a concept he had on his back porch in 2008. Despite the fact that the hotel sector was in crisis at the time, Steve and his company performed the unthinkable. Through various parts, they raised over $600 million in value and $800 million in obligation. This triggered the purchase and sale of over 9000 single-family houses in 12 states. From 2008 through 2016, he served as Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Co-Founder of American Residential Properties Inc. (NYSE: ARPI) and its predecessors and partners. He offered it in 2016 to American Homes 4 Rent (NYSE: AMH), one of the largest publicly listed single-family rental REITs. Whatever it takes has been his personal slogan for quite some time, and he has enabled his employees at American Residential Properties Inc. to embrace and live it. Steve acknowledges that this is what distinguished ARPI and was the true reason why people were thrilled to come to work every day. Today, Steve is inspiring company pioneers, business visionaries, and colleagues from a variety of industries to embrace the ""Whatever it takes"" mindset in order to rekindle their passion and release their best."
