Staniford departs PropertyShark

Bill Staniford, CEO of PropertyShark, has left the company, following its acquisition by California-based real estate software company Yardi Systems six months ago, according to Crain’s. Staniford, who has been with PropertyShark since 2008, said that, after the acquisition, “the company wasn’t a good fit” for him. The former CEO cited a changing company culture as his reason for leaving. “I don’t perform well in larger entities,” Staniford said. “I’m used to calling the shots.” Staniford grabbed headlines recently, when he revealed his romantic involvement with Anna Chapman, a Russian spy.
