Samson is passionate about making an impact on other people's lives and loves knowing that he can give people access to passive real estate investments so that they can keep crushing it, while growing and protecting their wealth.As the founder of Growth Vue Properties and the founder of the Passive Power Group Samson Jagoras helps give others access to investments that they thought were unattainable and acts as a liaison, educator and curator that gives them the supreme confidence in their passive multifamily investments.Over Samson's 13+ year career in business, executive leadership and entrepreneurship, he has served as a Futures and Commodities broker, actively invested in real estate, became a commercial real estate broker, became the VP of Strategic Investments for RE/MAX Commercial Alliance, built several businesses, and acted as the Chief Strategy Officer for Madwire, an INC 500 company.
