Flash, an Austin-based mobility technology company connecting property owners, operators, and drivers, has appointed Peter Weiss as Chief Business Officer. Weiss will lead Flash’s newly established Office of Real Estate and oversee the company’s marketing strategy, with a mandate to expand owner relationships and position parking as a measurable source of net operating income across real estate portfolios. He is based in New York and reports directly to CEO Chris Donus.
Weiss most recently served as Chief Real Estate Officer at Latch, now operating as DOOR, where he led direct-to-owner growth through relationships with the nation’s largest multifamily owners and developers. Earlier in his career, he held senior roles at Capital Properties and Ackman-Ziff Real Estate Group, closing more than 6 billion dollars in transactions across the capital stack. His background spans real estate investment, banking, ownership, and operations.
Flash operates one of the most comprehensive mobility and parking technology platforms in North America, serving more than 2,200 owners and parking operator partners across over 17,000 locations, including multifamily properties, municipal garages, office buildings, hospitals, airports, event venues, and hotels. The platform manages the full driver journey from search and reservation through entry, payment, and exit, and routes drivers to owner assets through its ParkWhiz app and partnerships with Google Maps, Waze, ParkMobile, and Ticketmaster. Flash is backed by Vista Equity Partners and L Catterton.
KEY QUOTES:
“With more than two decades of experience spanning real estate investment, banking, ownership, and operations, Peter brings a strong understanding of how real estate owners evaluate assets, operations, and long-term value creation. He will help us strengthen our relationships with commercial property owners while sharpening how we bring Flash’s value proposition to market.”
Chris Donus, CEO, Flash
“Owners have historically treated parking as an operational necessity rather than a strategic asset. Flash has the technology, data, and demand network to change that. I’m joining the company to help real estate owners unlock untapped NOI from parking and mobility, improve portfolio performance, and deliver better visitor experiences.”
Peter Weiss, Chief Business Officer, Flash
