AMS Renatus Investing is an investment company focused on value add single family and multifamily investments. Strength in management and an emphasis on customer service has led to strong tenant retention and maximized ROI.

POTER Inc, is a 501C3 non-for-profit that provides over 50 support programs and outreach to various families, primarily focusing on refugees. The programs target infants, children, adults and seniors on a holistic level to help them become integrated and self-sufficient New Americans.

The combination of the for-profit and supporting non-profit leads to the success of the resident value as well as turning long time residents into vested homeowners within the immediate community, leading to the increased broad reaching neighborhood revitalization.

As the managing member of AMS Renatus Investing LLC since August 2011, Anna Sepic focuses on renovating homes with a specialty in the repositioning of large multi-family properties facing mismanagement and blight across the Greater Valley, with expertise in West Phoenix and Glendale. She has several other investment companies with her partners, all with the same mission and vision. Her oversite includes acquisitions, repositioning, management and dispositions for her companies. Grassroots community organizing is also a critical component that leads to such tremendous success of the housing projects and leads to overall large-scale community revitalization of the surrounding neighborhoods.

Anna is extensively involved in community work with refugees and the Hispanic communities. A firm believer in education, both formal and informal, she has seen the need for a multi-faceted approach at addressing complex social issues. As a result, POTER INC. was created back in 2013, whose vision focuses on formalizing the critical components necessary for empowerment and true raising up of the entire community. POTER INC takes a comprehensive approach to providing necessary tools to engage and empower the disenfranchised and marginalized. Its success lies in the extensive public-private partnerships with churches, schools, government agencies, businesses and other non-profit entities to provide trainings, orientations and various supportive programming for children, adults and seniors. POTER Inc. is officially active 501 (c) (3) since November 2015.

With a heavy community service attitude, Anna is very active in various community programs and boards. She has gone through several leadership and development programs as the youngest graduate at the time, including the DPS Citizens Academy, the Phoenix PD Citizens Academy as well as the FBI Citizens’ Academy, and most recently the MCAO Citizen Academy (2016). She also received the 2014 City of Phoenix “Volunteer Impact Award” from Mayor Stanton and Councilwoman Laura Pastor.

Anna also participated in the first two consecutive years of the St. Luke’s Health Initiative’s (now Vitalyst Foundation), invitation only, “Fellowship Cohort” that was established in 2013. She also served on the Board of Directors for the Maryvale Revitalization Corporation and working with various community groups in the Canyon Corridor as well as the North Mountain Redevelopment area, and was a graduate of the Valley Leadership Advance, Class #2 (2016).

A graduate from the W.P. Carey School of Business from Arizona State University with a Masters of Real Estate Development (MRED), she is now a “double devil” having previously completed her undergraduate degrees in just two and a half years (2011) with a double major and minor: Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, Bachelor of Science in Justice Studies and Social Inquiry, and a minor in English. She stays in close contact with her Xavier/Brophy alumni as well (2008). In her spare time, she continues her passion for volunteer work by mentoring refugee youth, tutoring in English and writing and speaking at various engagements about refugees, innovative housing, and a young business leader, most notably to the recent Mandela-Obama scholars visiting Phoenix in June 2017.
