In this episode of From Adversity to Abundance, host Jamie Bateman sits down with Sam Morris, founder and CEO of Sunset Capital, a firm specializing in multifamily and self-storage real estate investing. With 18 years in corporate banking, Sam developed a deep understanding of underwriting and market analysis before transitioning into passive and active real estate investing.
Sam shares the roller coaster experience of his first deal as a passive investor, which took an unexpected and difficult turn. At just 24 or 25 years old, as a young father, he faced the real possibility of losing a significant investment. His journey through that challenge is a true example of navigating adversity in real estate.
Toward the end of the episode, Sam and Jamie discuss knowing when to push through hard work versus when to step back and delegate, a crucial skill for any investor or entrepreneur. Sam also shares unique book recommendations, including one that has never been mentioned on the show before.
Whether you're an active or passive investor, or simply looking to understand market conditions and investment strategies, this episode is packed with insights from Sam’s extensive financial background.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
