In this premiere episode of The Value Add Strategy, host Matt Ricciardella sits down with Paul Moore, founder of Wellings Capital and author of The Perfect Investment, for a candid and wide-ranging conversation about impact investing, building recession-resistant portfolios, and the deep importance of character in choosing operators and business partners. Paul shares his unique journey from Golden Gloves boxer and Ford Motor Company engineer to successful entrepreneur and real estate private equity firm founder. Together, Matt and Paul explore what separates speculating from investing, how to spot world-class operators, and why mobile home communities and self-storage remain compelling, resilient asset classes for those focused on both returns and impact.
