Humanity is on the brink of greatness, and all we need to do is shift our mindset for what we use all of our hard work to accomplish.If this is inappropriate for this forum, I apologize for not conveying this in a way that matters to you, but I argue that the underlying ideas can be converted into anything you put your mind to.Sorry for formatting errors from pasting from google drive.Find houses that are falling behind on repair and maintenance.Bike and walk dogs through the current neighborhood.Recently widowed homeowners are a good candidate.Find a small amount of time to donate to helping neighbors do easy projects.Use this time as an opportunity to learn what they need, what support they have, long term goals, etc.Create community events to take care of the properties that are farthest behind.Create an actual govt program to be more productive with govt owned properties.Instead of selling the property to an investor, fix the property with the specific intent of providing housing for some form of underserved population.This is the reasoning behind structuring as a non-profit.If created correctly might be a great way to scale by using other “flippers” as partners.
