Ada Arevalo has an established 20-year career in real estate investments with executive roles in Finance, Fund Management, Capital Raising, and Impact Investments, and now serves as the Founder and CEO of iimpact, a real estate fund manager co-investing with women-led operators and developers.

Throughout her career, it became evident that women, especially women of color, did not share the same opportunities to have a seat at the table. Understanding the privilege that her hard work has afforded her, in 2021 Ada sought to develop an investment strategy that applied her experience and expertise to remove the barriers to entry that women operators and developers encounter in the industry. Applying an innovative three-pronged approach, iimpact's mission is to create equitable access to capital and opportunity as a driver for innovation, impact, and performance of real estate investments.

Ada began her career in public accounting which, combined with a personal mission to advance disadvantaged communities created a strong foundation from which she built success in impact investing and affordable housing, including a long tenure at Avanath Capital. In addition to her leadership at iimpact, Ada is also committed to serving various mission-driven private and non-profit boards and mentoring mission-aligned organizations through the Terner Housing Innovation Labs, Multifamily Impact Council, and the Real Estate Association of Latinx Professionals (REAL), among others.
