Daniel Sisto
Chief Executive Officer
Daniel has an undergraduate degree in Finance from LeMoyne college as well as an MBA from Syracuse University. Here he began to get an understanding of his goals and what it will take to reach them. A Syracuse resident his whole life, Dan is an enthusiastic member of the community and enjoys spending time with his family, playing golf and assisting his clients in anyway possible.
HS Property Funds, LLC was started by Dan Sisto in 2014 with one goal in mind.The goal of assisting homeowners with their most important asset, their homes while also restoring houses and neighborhoods back to their full potential. We have a passion for real estate and understand that sometimes homeowners in our local area face financial hardships that force their families into a difficult situation. With little information on alternative selling solutions, these homeowners typically leave their homes to be foreclosed on, seized by the county or have their home sit on the market due to a number of repairs that are needed on the property.
We realized at an early stage that our competitors in this business have a bad persona clouding their businesses as "shady" or "scammy". We decided to redefine our business mission to serve our clients better than anyone else by keeping our promises, being upfront, honest and supplying each homeowner with a fair cash transition.
With that in mind, we want you to know that we are always here to help you out. No matter your situation, we will give you our honest opinion on what is the best solution for you and your family.
