On October 26th, 2024, from 15:10 to 16:00 EST, at the Upskillre Conference, Melvin J. Landry Jr., founder of More-Land Equity Capital, will share his expertise on global real estate markets in a panel discussion titled "Global Real Estate Markets: Insights for the Road Ahead." If you are interested in real estate, economics, or the future of housing, Melvin's session is one you won’t want to miss.
Melvin J. Landry, Jr. is an experienced real estate investor and expert in affordable housing.
He lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with his wife Jacqueline and their son, Melvin III. As the founder of More-Land Equity Capital, Melvin focuses on buying and managing properties that provide affordable but high-quality living experiences. He currently owns and operates 50 homes in Pittsburgh, ranging from single-family homes to larger apartment buildings. But Melvin’s work extends beyond Pittsburgh—he has invested in over 2,900 multifamily housing units across Texas, Ohio, Arkansas, and Kansas.
Melvin’s journey into real estate wasn’t the result of a single decision.
With over 20 years of experience in corporate procurement and supply chain management, Melvin understands how business works, and he’s used this knowledge to become successful in real estate. He’s also a professor in economics and marketing, which adds another layer of expertise to his approach.
Melvin is driven by a mission to provide high-quality, affordable housing for families in neighborhoods that often lack investment. His goal is to offer what he calls "A-class living experiences" in "C-class neighborhoods." This means he wants people living in lower-income areas to have homes they can be proud of, with amenities and comfort typically found in wealthier communities.
Melvin is also a mentor in programs like The Core, Raise Masters, and the Family Office Club, helping others learn how to invest wisely and grow in the real estate field. He believes in sharing his knowledge with others, which makes him not only a successful businessperson but also an important guide for the next generation of real estate investors.
Melvin’s experience managing properties in different states, along with his background in corporate procurement, gives him a unique perspective. He knows how to evaluate markets, spot trends, and make decisions that benefit both investors and residents. During the panel, Melvin and other experts will discuss:

Melvin will explain how creating affordable housing can benefit both communities and investors.
