Most investors focus on the property. Ben Kahle believes the people behind the deal matter even more. In this conversation, Ben explains how Wellings Capital evaluates sponsors before committing capital. His team reviews more than 26 due diligence items and spends time understanding integrity, track record, incentives, and operating processes. Ben also shares how broker relationships, outside references, and loan history data help verify what sponsors tell them. He explains why the onsite manager may be responsible for much of a property's success or failure and why repeat relationships with sponsors create better outcomes.

With the right asset classes and the right operators, Real Estate is a slow and steady investment vehicle, but can still entail risk. Over the past 3-5 years, many passive investors have lost money. The best way to mitigate this risk is to invest with experienced fund operators who vet the operators and the opportunities withing the fund for you. Great investors like Warren Buffet, Charles Munger, Howard Marks and others, invest in boring, predictable things they know will endure. Paul Moore, The “Boring Investor,” and Founder of Wellings Capital, is operating his eighth successful fund that invests across recession resistant asset classes.

Paul Moore is coming to MREIC 2026 with a message a lot of investors need right now: the path to long-term wealth isn't exciting—it's durable, disciplined, and often "boring." In this Speaker Spotlight conversation with host Brian, Paul (Founder of Wellings Capital) explains why many investors are still dealing with the fallout from the last cycle—paused distributions, capital calls, dilution, and deals that were sold as "set it and forget it." His session, The Boring Investor, is built to help you recalibrate how you evaluate risk, returns, operators, and long-term wealth preservation. Paul will be speaking at the 2026 Midwest Real Estate Investor Conference (MREIC) on Tuesday, April 28, 2026 at 9:30 AM at DeVos Place Convention Center in Grand Rapids, Michigan. In this episode, you'll hear: Why "high risk" doesn't automatically mean "high returns" What it looks like to invest for decades (not quarters) The three-part framework Paul uses to evaluate investments: durable assets, strong operators, and intrinsic value How to spot disciplined underwriting vs. "boom time" thinking A practical investor communication tool Paul uses Get tickets + conference details: midwestreiconference.com View ticket options: midwestreiconference.com/view-ticket-options

The Power and Pitfalls of Niche Asset Classes Paul Moore's perspective on “boring but beautiful” sectors like self-storage and small-bay industrial assets emphasizes their recession resistance and long-term cash flow. He underlines: “A great property can be ruined by a mediocre operator, and a mediocre asset can be saved and prosper under a great asset manager.” This theme of specialized knowledge—versus chasing trends—is critical for sustainable, risk-adjusted returns. 2. Leveraging Data, AI, and Hyperlocal Analysis Neal Bawa demonstrates how real estate investing is being revolutionized by artificial intelligence and predictive analytics. “All of our rent comps are now done by a tool called Manus…We're able to manage our properties better because our weekly reports on asset management are AI-generated,” Neal shares. The key is using tech not just for efficiency, but for smart, precision targeting in investment decisions. 3. Strategic Asset Management—From Landlord to Business Owner Ken emphasizes the essential mindset shift from simply being a landlord to managing properties as scalable businesses. “If the asset is in really, really good shape, it's well capitalized, it's maintained, financially maintained…then it actually helps when you start to exit.” Operational excellence—including robust asset management and leveraging both people and systems—drives sustainable value. 4. Aligning Values and Wealth: Impact Investing in Real Estate This episode dives into strategies for doing well while doing good. Jay Papasan highlights, “The money is good for the good it can do...wealth is great because we can make great change with it.” Both he and J Scott discuss setting impact goals, engaging community, and integrating purpose into investment models—showing that profitability and purpose aren't mutually exclusive. Call-to-Action Your Inspired Money challenge for the week: take one step to move from “landlord thinking” to “asset manager thinking.” Review a property you own, or one you're considering, and calculate its Net Operating Income. Ask yourself, "What simple change could increase cash flow or reduce costs?"

This dual doc couple has a very impressive milestone today. They have saved $100,000 towards retirement during residency. They wanted to give themselves more compounding interest time and not wait until they were attendings. This doc also shared about their student loan journey. They met with Andrew at StudentLoanAdvice.com and got a plan in place early. They decided that they did not want to go for PSLF so before they started residency they refinanced their loans. They took a risk to refinance when their loans were at 0% but they locked in sub 3% and are now feeling very good about their decision. Then, for Finance 101 we are talking about plan documents for employer provided retirement accounts. Many investors know about the historic returns, tax advantages, and wealth-building opportunities of commercial real estate investing, but they're confused about where to start or who to trust.

Here's the truth nobody talks about: investing isn't about saying “yes” to every shiny opportunity that comes your way. It's about discipline. It's about mastering the art of saying “no.” It's about boring consistency, and yes, sometimes it feels plain, but that's where real wealth is quietly built. Paul Moore's journey from rags to riches didn't just end with his financial exit. He wiped out his debt and embraced the mindset that no matter what, you never stop giving. Because giving fuels growth, relationships, and opportunity in ways money alone never can. What if saying “no” more often is actually the key to unlocking your financial freedom? Are you prepared to keep giving, even when it feels like you've given enough and things get tough? In this episode, founder of Wellings Capital Paul Moore, joins me to talk about real estate investing, how he went from rags to riches, and why the way out is to always give. Things You'll Learn In This Episode -Learning to say NO The most successful investors achieve their results by saying no to nearly every opportunity. How can learning to say no improve decision-making and long-term success? -The real housing crisis Many real estate developers prioritize luxury apartments, overlooking the growing demand for affordable housing. What is the impact of this unbalanced supply and demand? -Warren Buffett: rules for real estate Warren Buffett emphasizes investing in real estate with a long-term mindset, focusing on value, not hype. How can adopting a long-term, value-focused approach improve real estate investment strategy? Guest Bio Paul Moore is the Founder of Wellings Capital. After graduating with an engineering degree and then an MBA from Ohio State, Paul entered the management development track at Ford Motor Company in Detroit. After five years, he departed to start a staffing company with a partner. They scaled and sold the company to a publicly traded firm five years later. After a brief “retirement” in his early 30s, Paul began investing in real estate in 1999 to protect and grow his own wealth. He completed over 85 real estate investments and exits, appeared on HGTV's House Hunters, rehabbed and managed dozens of rental properties, and developed a subdivision. After completing three successful real estate developments, including assisting with the development of a Hyatt hotel and a very successful multifamily project, Paul narrowed his focus to commercial real estate in 2011. Paul is married with four children and lives in Central Virginia. Visit https://www.wellingscapital.com/resources for more information.

Jason talks about the increase in customs revenue under Trump's policies, highlighting a significant rise from $4 billion in 2015 to $22.3 billion, though he noted it would not solve government debt issues. He predicted a likely decrease in interest rates due to the disappearance of the inflation threat, which could lead to a surge in home buyers, potentially wiping out current inventory if rates drop by half a percent. Jason emphasized the importance of focusing on fundamentals and staying in the market long-term for success, even during a "boring" time in real estate with moderate appreciation and flat rents. He also mentioned opportunities in note investing for high returns and encouraged listeners to explore this option. Then Jason and Paul Moore of WellingsCapital.com discuss the concept of "boring investors" who focus on long-term, passive investing strategies that prioritize consistent returns and personal fulfillment over speculative trading and quick profits. They explore how successful investors like Warren Buffett demonstrate the benefits of careful, methodical investing through steady growth and avoidance of emotional decision-making, while emphasizing the importance of diversification within proven asset classes like real estate. They conclude with reflections on legacy investing and social impact, highlighting the value of disciplined, boring investment approaches that prioritize long-term happiness and meaningful contributions to society.

This hospitalist paid off $380,000 of student loans in only 3 years! She had a goal and a plan from the moment she completed training. She poured every cent she could into her debt while living like a resident. She shared that it is not complicated but it does take determination to do something like this. As she was riding her bike to work and skipping on buying the fancy new car her coworkers thought she was a little nuts. She also took advantage of the student loan freeze and saved roughly $40K a year in interest by continuing to pay down the debt during that time. After the interview we will be talking about Target Date Funds. Many investors know about the historic returns, tax advantages, and wealth-building opportunities of commercial real estate investing, but they're confused about where to start or who to trust.

This Orthopedist has grown his wealth to $3 million only 3 years out of training. He tackled his student loans quickly and started saving and investing aggressively. As we talk about regularly, a big income is super helpful but it doesn't get you anywhere if you aren't financially literate. He and his wife got on the same page early and put their high incomes to work. Getting their financial ducks in a row is going to give them both the freedom to work fewer hours and create a balanced work and family life. After the interview we talk about that you do not have to invest in everything to have success. Many investors know about the historic returns, tax advantages, and wealth-building opportunities of commercial real estate investing, but they're confused about where to start or who to trust. Wellings Capital has created a diversified fund that offers investors an easy on-ramp to access carefully vetted commercial real estate operators and opportunities. Their goal is to provide income, growth, and tax benefits with limited downside risk.

I'm really a pretty nice guy. I've met hundreds of you in person and spoken to a few thousand more prospects/investors by phone or on Zoom. So, hopefully, most of you agree. But as I write this, I'm a bit miffed. You see, our Wellings Capital team is like family. We love and care for each other. So, I hate to see anyone on our team taken advantage of. But it feels like that's what happened here. Our team recently spent over five weeks heads-down on what should have been a straightforward preferred equity investment. I did the due diligence trip in the fall. It was a beautiful mobile home park, and we were eager to add it to our investment portfolio. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

You might have seen Paul Moore's recent BiggerPockets article titled "What's Really Behind the Slew of Recent Commercial Failures", in which he urges us not to overgeneralize the term ‘commercial real estate', and instead recognize that there are many asset classes in many locations, and many of them will be just fine.
