Speaker Spotlight: Paul Moore on Risk, Returns, and Wealth Preservation

The MREIC 2026 Speaker Spotlight series continues with Paul Moore, Founder of Wellings Capital and a commercial real estate investor with 100+ investments and exits across self storage, mobile home parks, apartments, and other commercial assets.

Paul Moore’s session is called The Boring Investor—and he means that as a compliment. After the last cycle, many investors are still dealing with the fallout: paused distributions, surprise capital calls, dilution, and deals that were pitched as “set it and forget it” now creating stress.

Paul Moore’s talk is essentially “Warren Buffett thinking for real estate”...not predictions, not headlines, but an evergreen framework for choosing durable assets, strong operators, and real value.

This is for investors who are done chasing the next exciting thing and want something that holds up. If you’re prioritizing capital preservation, risk-adjusted returns, and operator quality, you’ll leave with a sharper filter for what to say yes to and what to walk away from.

Paul Moore will be speaking at Midwest Real Estate Investor Conference (MREIC 2026) on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, at 9:30 AM, at DeVos Place in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

The Boring Investor: Grow Your Real Estate Wealth by Applying Lessons from the World’s Greatest Investors

After the last cycle, a lot of investors are still dealing with the fallout: paused distributions, capital calls, dilution, and deals that were pitched as “set it and forget it” now creating stress. Paul’s session is a reset: a disciplined, long-term framework for evaluating investments without relying on hype, headlines, or boom-time assumptions.

He’ll break down how “boring” investing actually works in real estate—prioritizing durable assets, strong operators, and real value—so you can make clearer decisions, reduce regret, and build wealth over decades.
