Investment Solutions from the Heart of Scottsdale

Mike Devinsky is the founder of Scottsdale Investment Partners, a private equity firm focused on generating passive income through low-risk, cashflow-positive real estate investments. Built on principles of transparency, alignment, and long-term value, the firm creates investment opportunities that serve both the investor and the greater community.

Mike’s path into private equity is anything but typical—but that’s exactly what sets him apart. He began his career as a professional poker player, earning financial independence in his early 20s by mastering probability, discipline, and strategic risk. From there, he co-founded a successful digital marketing agency before studying Physics and Computer Science at UC Berkeley. During his time there, he began trading public equities and quickly discovered he had a unique ability to spot overlooked opportunities. Over the next seven years, he consistently outperformed the market through self-directed investing.

After relocating to Scottsdale with his wife Julie, Mike turned his attention to real estate. What began as a personal investment quickly evolved into a broader mission. Through extensive research and analysis, he identified a scalable model that helps solve one of today’s most pressing problems: the disappearance of affordable homeownership for middle-class families. Scottsdale Investment Partners was founded in response—to create win-win scenarios where families access stable housing and investors gain reliable, tax-efficient income.

Mike strongly believes in a "skin in the game" approach and doesn't believe people should be compensated unless they perform. He has adopted the philosophy in his own business ensuring true alignment from the start. His track record, analytical rigor, and commitment to transparency have made him a trusted partner for those seeking a smarter, more grounded path to long-term wealth.
