We Started With One Belief

Nate Armstrong co-founded Home Invest in 2014 on a simple conviction: real estate should build wealth and change the lives of the people who live in it. That belief still runs through every deal we do.

We started in single-family homes, closed more than 500 transactions, and earned the trust of investors who wanted to build wealth outside equities. As the market shifted, we moved into discounted multifamily before the crowd. Today, we've transacted on 1,600+ doors and manage a growing multifamily portfolio across multiple states.

Our CEO, Chris Lavin, grew up homeless and built everything he has from the ground up. That story shapes how we lead and who we serve.

For us, impact is the whole point. When you lead with faith and purpose, the returns take care of themselves.

Our Impact

Nate Armstrong, President

Inc. 500 co-founder helping accredited investors build lasting wealth through multifamily and giving fatherless kids a future.

Nate Armstrong is the co-founder and President of Home Invest, which he launched in 2014 and grew into an Inc. 500 company (No. 352). With nearly two decades in investing, finance, and asset management, he closed more than 100 projects before building the firm into a multifamily portfolio that spans multiple states.

His approach involves acquiring multifamily properties below their value, turning them around, and sharing the returns with the investors who make it possible.

Nate co-hosts the weekly Opportunity Zone Show, and he invests his own capital alongside his clients in every deal he brings them.

For Nate, wealth is meant to create impact. That conviction drives Home Invest Kids, the nonprofit he founded to give fatherless children mentorship, financial literacy, and experiences they never imagined.

Chris Lavin, CEO

CEO and serial entrepreneur who went from homeless to building and selling companies, now leading Home Invest's mission and message.

Chris Lavin's story begins where few success stories do. Homeless at 17, broke and without direction, he met a stranger who had almost nothing yet believed in him when he couldn't believe in himself. That moment changed everything. Chris went on to found BrightCove Investments and build and sell a series of companies.

Today, as CEO of Home Invest, he leads the company's mission, its message, and its people. Chris hosts Mindset Monday, a free weekly show on the faith and mindset behind building real wealth, and he shapes the culture that makes Home Invest more than a real estate firm.

His past still drives his purpose. Chris leads the company's philanthropy and pours into the next generation through Home Invest Kids, because he learned early that wealth means nothing without impact.

For Chris, Believe in More isn't a tagline. His life is proof of it.
