Born and raised in Toronto with three other siblings. His father is Nick Visentin, a working realtor who started his own realty firm known as ‘Country Living Realty’. David attended and graduated West Humber Collegiate Institute. After finishing high school, David wanted to pursue a career in acting and was looking into attending a theatre school. However his father opposed the idea and persuaded him to pursue his real estate license instead. However it was noted that his father did give David the option to pursue Theatre if he wanted to, just as along as he had his real estate license as a back up. At the time, obtaining a real estate license in the province of Ontario was estimated to be roughly six weeks and both David’s brothers and sister obtained their licenses, so David followed suit. After obtaining his license, David began his career in 1987 working as an agent under his family business ‘Country Living Realty’ in Barrie, Ontario…
