I believe Southwest Airlines turned a profit for 69 straight quarters...and made money hand-over-fist for 30 years, despite being overseen by government and not-for-profit organizations.As another example, consider all the nut-job religious televangelists who claim not-for-profit status as a church, make millions of dollars, and then don't pay a penny in taxes.

I like my agent (we go to the same church) and she did send me this property, but I may have to talk to the listing agent.

Here's what I've tried:Contacted the neighbors to see if they want itContacted all the local churches to see if a parishoner wants itContacted Habitat for HumanityContacted the City to see if they just want it back (before tax foreclosure hits)Contacted the Land Bank (charitable orginazation in the area that helps reduce blight in the City)None of them have interest in it because it's not in any of their revitalization zones.

We have some great opportunities in the New Orleans area for historic homes and churches that never flooded and have been around for at least 150 years.

I'm pretty sure that the mom found someone at her church for some ludicrously low price to do the work on the cheap.

Hmmm...so odd that one does what ones thinks is right, and works hard, doesn't drink/break laws/gamble, college/4.0 g.p.a. advanced degrees, feeds the coffers of the mortgage lending profiteers and at church, and there is still no hope for any quality of life above rat-in-a-wheel slavery, and should be grateful to be able to do it...just seems really odd, somewhat inhumane.

The goal right now is to partner with several churches in the area, each sponsoring a room.
