The round values the cloud-based leasing and portfolio management platform at about $200 million, sources familiar with VTS told The Real Deal, and makes it one of the industry’s richest startups. “This is not a consumer market play. It’s a vertical fast play,” said Ryan Masiello, VTS’ chief revenue officer and co-founder, referring to the winner-take-all environment that enterprise software companies operate in. “To successfully raise a Series C, it’s really, really hard,” and needs investors to see a track record of revenue growth and market dominance, he added.
