About Us

Vision Statement

We help people achieve financial freedom by investing in real estate collectively rather than individually so that we can achieve greater investment success together than we could achieve individually by pooling talent and resources.

Many people know of Paul as part of the Heaps Team with his wife Becky. However it is real estate investing that is his first passion. Prior to real estate, Paul graduated from the University of Michigan Business School. He worked in finance for one of the “Big 4” accounting firms now known as Price Waterhouse Coopers.

Matt Sieber - Managing Partner

Matt Sieber lives in St. Joseph, Mi with his wife of 13 years, Kaitlin, and two daughters Lydia and Ellie. After 6 years of being in the builders trade and general contracting world, Matt became a licensed Realtor in the State of Michigan. 

His exposure to contracting, which began in 2009, provided opportunities to explore Real Estate Investments through house flipping, wholesaling, the Mobile Home Park industry, and SFH buy and hold with management. 

Becoming a licensed Realtor was initially just so Matt could be his own agent for his investment homes, but it quickly grew to working with friends, family, and a close network of folks. Five years later it has evolved to several years with $4-5 million dollars in sales. Then in 2021, he achieved $9 million in sales. By becoming an agent, Matt had the opportunity to partner up with Paul Heaps and the rest of the team.
