Cherre was co-founded by Ben Hizak and L.D. Salmanson, who have been friends since the fourth grade and business partners since junior high. Before Cherre, Ben co-founded Sirenum, a UK-based software company, and L.D. co-founded Greencrest Capital, where he recognized the potential for data-driven investment and underwriting decision-making in the industry. This realization led him to programmatically connect disparate data, uncovering hidden insights and opportunities. L.D. later sold Greencrest Capital to Oppenheimer and became the Executive Director of Oppenheimer’s Private Shares Group. Together, they aimed to address the challenges in the real estate market related to data disparity, launching Cherre with a vision to transform real estate investing and underwriting into a science by connecting all real estate data for better investment and underwriting decisions.
