My guest in this episode is Tom Wallace, the founder and CEO of Re-Leased Property Software. Founded in 2012 and based out of New Zealand, Re-Leased helps thousands of owners and property managers across the world run their commercial property business in the cloud.
An aspiring entrepreneur, Tom set up ReLeased straight out of university after seeing first hand the challenges that his father’s real estate business had managing its commercial properties. He was mentored by Rod Drury, founder of Xero who as it turns out also lives near Tom and who he cornered in a local coffee shop to get his advice.
Re-Leased was the winner of Xero's emerging add on of the year 2014, as well as finalist for add of on of the year for Australia and UK in 2017. And Tom was the winner of the Rising Star Category for New Zealand in the Talent Unleashed competition for 2014.
As Tom explains in this interview, ReLeased has been built for global scale and now has five global offices, and is continuing to expand throughout the world.
