Adam Gower

Adam Gower Ph.D. is a highly sought-after expert in crowdfunding, helping real estate professionals finance their projects without having to spend all their time searching for investors. Learn more about how he does that in his personal biography, here.

He has more than 30 years and $1.5 billion of transactional experience in commercial real estate finance and investment and is actively preparing to buy distressed real estate and non-performing loans— both a type of real estate in which he has considerable experience. Over the last five years, he has built a digital marketing agency at GowerCrowd.com, where he advises real estate pros on how to raise capital by helping them build and convert their investor lists.

Experience
Adam has held senior management positions at some of the largest companies and institutions in the world, including running real estate for Universal Studios and Paramount Studios (Asia Pacific), heading the distressed real estate group at a major California bank ($1 billion portfolio), running real estate workouts and sales at Colony Capital ($6 billion portfolio), and others.

When the JOBS Act of 2012 was passed, Adam realized that commercial real estate finance would be transformed by the new regulations by permitting equity to be raised online. Seeing that this would revolutionize the industry, he formed GowerCrowd, an agency geared to assisting real estate developers raise money online by crowdfunding and to educating investors on what to look for.

His goal is to liberate real estate entrepreneurs from the shackles of in-person equity raising by automating the process for them so they are free to buy the deals they want, grow their portfolios, and provide passive income for themselves and their investors while building long-term wealth.

Adam has published multiple books, including Leaders of the Crowd
(Palgrave Macmillan: New York, 2018), which examines how the origins of crowdfunding and how real estate has come to dominate the industry; Real Estate Crowdfunding: An Insider’s Guide to Investing Online (Routledge: New York, 2020), which gives investors the inside scoop on what to look for when investing in crowdfunded deals; and his latest book, SYNDICATE, a practical guide on how to raise money online.

He is host of The Real Estate Crowdfunding Show, Syndication in the Digital Age podcast and writes extensively on real estate crowdfunding best practices.
