Home Invest
Recycle Your Capital. Retain Your Equity. Change the World.

Imagine recovering most of your initial capital through refinancing, maintaining your equity ownership and cash flow, and building a relief house for a family in need—all from a single transaction. For accredited investors seeking long-term wealth without tied-up capital, Home Invest provides a turnkey model engineered for ‘infinite returns’ and global impact.

Guided by its ‘believe in more’ philosophy, Home Invest views wealth as a means to create a broader impact. It uses its profits to drive positive impact through nonprofit initiatives, financial literacy programs and community improvement. For Nate Armstrong, President and co-founder, this sense of stewardship is closely tied to how it approaches each investment.

“For us, success isn’t just about the returns we generate,” says Armstrong. “It’s about being good stewards of our investors’ capital and creating places that have a positive impact on the people and communities around them.”

Creating Value through Active Investment

Home Invest establishes a strong margin of safety before pursuing an acquisition. It typically targets properties at discounts of 30 to 40 percent and evaluates whether the purchase price is meaningfully below the cost to rebuild the property. The team also compares the acquisition price with similar properties in the market. Acquiring properties at a meaningful discount creates room for value through renovation and repositioning. Certain investments may also provide bonus-depreciation benefits when structured appropriately, adding another consideration to the overall return profile.

Once acquired, properties are renovated and repositioned through the company’s in-house management capabilities. The improvements can support higher occupancy and rents, strengthening the property’s income and increasing its value. Home Invest can then refinance the asset against the higher valuation and use the proceeds to return a substantial portion of the investors’ original capital. Their ownership interest remains in place, along with their share of distributions and rental income.

Armstrong describes this as an “infinite returns” strategy. One investment illustrates the model. Two brothers invested about $1 million in a property where units initially rented for approximately $450 to $550 per month. After Home Invest renovated and leased the property, rents reached roughly $850 to $950. A subsequent bank valuation was about 75 percent above the acquisition price, enabling the investor to recover more than half of his original capital while retaining ownership and future distributions.

Such investments can extend an asset beyond the original investor, supporting long-term family wealth through continued ownership and future distributions.

Connecting Investment with Community Impact

Home Invest sees education as part of its responsibility to investors. Through Home Invest Academy, the company teaches concepts such as return on investment, return on equity and legal strategies for managing tax obligations. Armstrong believes many of these subjects receive little attention in traditional education, leaving investors without a clear understanding of how real estate can support their financial goals.

The same commitment to helping people extends to the communities in Home Invest’s portfolio. At a recently acquired 977-unit Atlanta-area property, Home Invest plans to offer resume-building workshops, career fairs and other initiatives designed to help residents increase their earning potential. Stronger household incomes can support higher rents and, in turn, contribute to the property’s long-term value.

After seeing the company successfully complete previous transactions, a bank approached Home Invest directly with a property it wanted to remove from its books. The growing interest from other sellers gives it a stronger pipeline as it looks to build its portfolio and expand its presence in the real estate investment market.
