Originally from New York State, Chris started his career in 1977 in the local housing authority in charge of the Section 8 Rental Assistance Program. In a very short time at the age of 26 he was appointed the Executive Director/CEO of the agency in charge of hundreds of units both scattered and project based. At the time he was the youngest CEO for a Housing Authority in the entire State.
A few years later he took over the helm as CEO of the local YMCA and was involved in a complete rejuvenation of the organization both financially and with the facility. This was a position he held for 10 years while forming his privately held Real Estate company in New York which was involved in managing, acquiring and developing properties in that area.
In 1996 he began acquiring properties in Southwest Florida and subsequently moved to open up what is now known as Spina Realty Company. Starting with just over $2M in sales in the first year of businees, Spina Realty Company has now grown to over $500M total over the 13 years of business!
Chris believes that every single customer deserves the utmost care and service during a transaction. "Putting People First" is the company motto since start up and this motto has been carried with him since he came into the YMCA over 18 years ago. In fact, his former YMCA still to this day uses the motto of "Putting People First".
