Community & real estate development strategies flow from one’s personal viewpoints about human beings; money; environments; justice matters; and, problem resolution strategies, to name a few. These thoughts invariably influence financial modeling and likewise dictate deal structuring. The direct impacts on communities become measurable for years to come. This premise has not only framed my company’s work spanning the last three decades, but it has equally guided our stewardship responsibility to add and not extract value from these already-disinvested communities.
