How Smart Investing Can Solve the Affordable Housing Crisis With Samuel Sells

Most real estate investors chase returns. Few also aim to lift people out of poverty. Samuel Sells does both. 

In this episode of The Agent of Wealth Podcast, host Marc Bautis is joined by Samuel Sells, a retired Air Force officer and the founder of Impact Growth Capital. With a background in global health and over $2 billion in completed development projects across five continents, Sam now applied his expertise to one of America’s most urgent challenges: the affordable housing crisis. Through innovative public-private partnerships and a $300 million impact fund, he’s proving that you can generate strong returns while rebuilding communities and transforming lives.
