At Hearthfire, we define true wealth as creating opportunities and positively impacting communities, not just financial success. As a trusted partner, we combine real estate expertise, technology, and a people-first approach to help you achieve your goals and grow purposeful wealth.
Hearthfire was born from a passion for real estate and a deep desire to help others unlock its transformative potential. Founded by Sergio and Corinn, our journey began with multifamily properties and quickly evolved into self-storage investments as market dynamics shifted. Along the way, we’ve built a $180 million portfolio and a reputation for resilience, innovation, and excellence.
Our story is one of adaptability and purpose. When we divested multifamily assets at their peak, we didn’t just pivot—we doubled down on what matters most: creating value for our investors and the communities they touch. Today, Hearthfire is a pioneer in the self-storage industry, providing scalable, efficient solutions that empower our partners to grow wealth beyond financial returns.
Unleashing the power of real estate, technology, and human ingenuity to revolutionize wealth creation for all.
To be everyone’s most trusted partner in their wealth journey.
We believe wealth is about more than money. It’s about aligning financial goals with personal passions, making decisions that reflect your values, and leaving a lasting legacy. At Hearthfire, we’re proud to partner with individuals and institutions who share this vision.
Behind Hearthfire’s success is a team of talented, driven individuals who share a passion for excellence and a commitment to our mission.
