Ashley Fox, CEO and founder of Empify and the WealthBuilders Community App, was a guest on the latest episode of Nareit’s REIT Report podcast. She spoke about the efforts Empify has undertaken to educate individuals with limited funds and investment experience, enabling them to build a financial foundation and begin building wealth.
Fox left a career on Wall Street in 2013 and set out to “financially empower the 99% that Wall Street often overlooks.” She created Empify with a goal to become the middleman between financial institutions and the everyday person, “because I understood the language of Wall Street, but I also understood the language in the hearts and minds of both adults and children and Empify bridges that gap.”
Empify has launched over 10,000 brand new investors, Fox said, adding that members of the WealthBuilders Community App have invested over $650,000 in REITs. She noted that a key takeway from Empify’s five-week REIT Investing Accelerator program is the extent to which REIT-owned properties are a consistent feature of investors’ everyday lives.
