Scott McWhorter
Founding Partner
Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution.
Scott McWhorter co-founded Virtú Investments with Michael Green in 1997. Together, they have built Virtú into a nationally recognized, vertically integrated real estate investment firm. Since its founding, the firm has acquired over 135 multifamily properties totaling more than $4.4 billion in asset value, consistently delivering strong returns to investors.
As Co-Founder and Principal, Scott leads Virtú’s property acquisition and disposition strategy, oversees transactions and portfolio management, and plays a key role in client relations and the continued growth of the firm.
Before launching Virtú, Scott held diverse entrepreneurial and real estate roles, including serving as COO of Premier Sports Marketing—later sold to Viacom in 1999—and contributing analytical and transactional expertise at a major California-based multifamily investment firm. He also played and coached professional basketball in Europe, during which time he acted as both a financial advisor and player agent.
Education
Scott earned dual degrees in Accounting and Finance, with an emphasis in Real Estate, from the University of San Francisco.
Interests
Outside of work, Scott enjoys traveling, live music, coaching and cheering on his kids in sports, staying fit, and spending time outdoors.
