Sam Sells is a retired US Air Force officer and combat veteran who founded Wild Mountain Capital in 2018 with his hero dad. Sam traveled globally with US Air Force Special Operations as an International Health Specialist and saw poverty and a lack of safe housing while leading complex rehab and development projects worldwide. This motivated Sam to start Wild Mountain to transform neglected, unsafe, and mismanaged assets not just into “affordable housing”, but into housing that is affordable. Since 2019, the team has syndicated 20 development/rehab properties, creating equity growth nearly twice the initial investment in less than two years. This week, Nate sits down with Sam to discuss syndication, decentralizing poverty, and mistakes to avoid in commercial real estate.
