ZOM Living Veteran Trip Stephens to Retire from CIO Role at Year’s End
Orlando, FL-based ZOM Living, a developer of luxury rental communities across the US, has announced the impending retirement of 36-year veteran Trip Stephens as the company’s chief investment officer.
Stephens retirement will take effect at the end of 2022; he will, however, remain an active volunteer with the real estate committee of Central Florida Coalition for the Homeless, where served nine years as a director and is a past chair of the board of directors.
Matthew Adler will assume leadership of ZOM Living’s capital management team upon Stephens’ retirement.
“Trip played a key role in expanding our network of capital partners and lenders as we emerged from the Great Recession,” said ZOM CEO Greg West. “We needed to diversify away from our traditional European private equity investors due to growing project sizes and lower leverage loans from our lenders. That diversification really fueled ZOM’s growth over the past decade.”
