ABOUT SETH GILMORE
I’m a systems builder by nature and an operator at heart — drawn to messy, complex problems that need structure, clarity, and momentum.My career has spanned everything from driving operational excellence at the most active venture capital firm in the U.S.(with $1B in AUM), to co-founding a restaurant chain from scratch, to leading digital transformation in the newsroom of The New York Times. Across every role, the common thread has been building durable systems that make organizations run better — and people’s lives easier.Today, I’m channeling that experience into commercial real estate. As a principal at Heat and Light Capital, I acquire and operate apartment buildings across the South and Midwest. We focus on multifamily properties with strong fundamentals and value-add upside, partnering with investors who value transparency, alignment, and performance.I take the strategic mindset and operational discipline I honed at Dartmouth’s Tuck School of Business and apply it to every phase of the real estate lifecycle — from sourcing and underwriting to execution and optimization. I thrive on turning underperforming assets into efficient, high-yield investments — just as I’ve done with businesses ranging from early-stage startups to legacy institutions.
