Some partnerships are built on opportunity—others on shared vision. For Jeff Thompson and Mike Trueman, Camelback Equity Partners is the product of both. From their individual journeys through real estate and finance to the founding of their Phoenix-based firm, their story is one of collaboration, discipline, and purpose.
In this episode of Decision Points, Scott Wood sits down with Jeff and Mike, co-founders of Camelback Equity Partners, to discuss the origins of their company and the dynamic team behind it. They trace their paths from early careers in development and investment to the decision that brought them together under one banner—creating a firm focused on real estate development, acquisition, and entrepreneurship. The conversation highlights how their complementary skills and shared values have shaped Camelback’s approach to building long-term value through intentional growth, thoughtful partnerships, and a culture that blends professionalism with fun.
Jeff and Mike also share their insights on the current real estate landscape, from navigating rising interest rates to identifying sustainable growth opportunities. Looking ahead, they discuss expansion plans, the evolving nature of their work, and the importance of legacy—building something that endures for future generations. With candor and humor, they remind us that success isn’t just about the deals you make, but the people you build them with.
