During his tenure in finance, Nick began investing and developing residential properties and, in 2001, he acquired the largest off-campus multi-family student housing portfolio in Lower Merion Township which specifically filled the high demands of Villanova University. This under-valued niche portfolio, which required substantial capital improvements along with a new marketing strategy to reposition the asset, was eventually sold in 2006 produced high yielding returns.
Having been successful in his first several ventures, Nick had decided to focus exclusively on commercial real estate under his new company, Vedic Holdings, LLC, which become a vertically integrated company owning, developing, leasing, and managing properties along the east coast region. He has since raised multiple rounds of private equity to fund the acquisition of undervalued or re-development of commercial real estate in the apartment, retail and R&D sectors.
