Philip Warsal

Philip N. Warsal is the Executive Vice President – Family Office, Chief Administrative Officer, and Controller at Chesapeake Realty Partners, a Mid-Atlantic real estate development company with roughly 75–80 years of operating history. He brings over 22 years of real estate and construction accounting experience, and is responsible for the firm's financial statement preparation, tax reporting, and administration of its family-office operations. Chesapeake Realty Partners has invested approximately $1.8 billion developing some 30 communities over the past 15 years and, across its history, has built or acquired nearly 10,000 rental apartments and 30,000 for-sale homes — making it one of the largest privately owned residential builders in the Baltimore–Washington region.

Before joining Chesapeake Realty Partners, Warsal was a Director at RSM US, LLP (the fifth-largest public accounting firm in the U.S.), where he worked with closely held real estate entrepreneurs on financial reporting, tax consulting, and compliance. This background in real estate tax and advisory work maps directly to his current role overseeing accounting and family-office finance.

Warsal earned a B.S. in Accounting from Towson University and an M.B.A. from Loyola University Maryland. He is a member of the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) and the Maryland Association of CPAs (MACPA).

A note on the "angel investor" label: Warsal's public profile is that of a finance and family-office executive, not an independent angel investor. Chesapeake Realty Partners' affiliated family office (associated with the Macks family) is described as active in venture capital and private equity — advising entrepreneurs on management teams, capital structures, and go-to-market strategy — which is the most likely origin of the seed/angel categorization in investor databases. No personal, individually attributed startup investments by Warsal were found in public sources.

• Primary professional focus is real estate: land acquisition and development, for-sale housing, multi-family rental communities, self-storage, and mixed-use / commercial properties across the Mid-Atlantic.
• Any early-stage / seed exposure flows through the affiliated family office rather than a personal angel checkbook; the family office is described as active in venture capital and private equity and in "counseling entrepreneurs on building management teams, creating capital structures, and establishing marketing and sales strategies."
• As Controller / CAO, Warsal's likely role in any deal is financial stewardship, structuring, tax, and diligence rather than sourcing or setting thesis — relevant for founders because the decision-maker on a check is more probably a family principal, with Warsal in the finance/operations seat.
• No publicly stated personal investment thesis, target check size, or sector mandate could be verified. (Stub data lists "Seed Round" and "Angel Investors"; treat as unconfirmed by primary sources.)
