From Riches to Rags and Back: Paul Moore’s Journey Through Success and Failure

In this episode, We sit down with Paul Moore, Founder at Wellings Capital, to map out his full journey—from Ford Motor Company engineer to flipping homes, to building one of the most respected names in commercial real estate. Paul opens up about the challenges of overpaying, the dangers of shiny object syndrome, and why long-term thinking beats chasing quick wins every time.

We go deep into what makes an operator trustworthy, why the top 10% of deals matter most, and how Paul’s team is finding value in places others overlook—like self-storage, RV parks, and mobile home communities. Paul also breaks down real deals, real risks, and how he learned to say no to bad opportunities so he could say yes to the right ones.

Tune in if you’re ready to think bigger, invest smarter, and build real wealth by learning from someone who’s seen it all—mistakes, pivots, and all the wins in between.
