About Wellings Capital

Wellings Capital is a real estate private equity firm founded in 2015 by Paul Moore and led by Managing Partner Benjamin Kahle. Based in Central Virginia, the firm has over $225 million of investor equity and over $500 million of assets under management (as of June 30, 2026).

The firm helps high-net-worth individuals, family offices, Registered Investment Advisors, and wealth managers access diversified private commercial real estate investments through professionally managed funds and co-investment vehicles.

Wellings Capital invests preferred equity and JV equity alongside experienced commercial real estate operators rather than operating properties directly, with a focus on asset types such as manufactured home communities, multifamily apartments, small bay and flex industrial, open-air retail, and select self-storage properties.

Our Team

Core values

Humility

No jerks allowed. No one has all the answers. We rely on each other, mentors, and advisors to ensure we make the best possible decisions.


Adaptability

We shift the sails, but stay the course. The market and investment opportunities will always shift, however we will stay focused on our mission and remain entrepreneurial.

Transparency

We are open when communicating with investors, sponsors, vendors, and team members about matters related to our business.

ROI > AUM

We’re not focused on chasing AUM growth for the sake of growth. We’re focused on delivering returns to investors. If we do that, growth will happen as a byproduct.
