Meet Our Team
While their backgrounds span investing, residential and commercial real estate, and property management, each member of Next Chapter’s leadership team has two things in common: an understanding of residents’ needs, and a belief in the importance of building a business that makes people happy.

Tim Chapman
Co-Founder
A people person with a passion for identifying strong investment opportunities, Tim grew his financial services company, Stadion Money Management, to more than $6 billion in assets under management. In the process, he gained an in-depth understanding of how Americans of all ages—from millennials to baby boomers—think about meeting and managing their basic needs. He brings both sets of insights to his current position, as he focuses on making Next Chapter an attractive opportunity for investors who want to experience stable income and growth in their portfolios and help wonderful people enjoy their version of the American dream.
