Rethink Real Estate. For Good.

I'm on a mission is to make real estate work for everyone. I love real estate. Real estate makes places good or bad, rich or poor, beautiful or not. In this show, I'm interviewing the disruptors, those creative thinkers and doers that are shrugging off the status quo, in order to build better for everyone.

    Community Capital.

    For Chris Miller, it’s all about community capital. Chris is chair and one of the founding board members of the National Coalition for Community Capital - or NC3.  They are leading the charge to strengthen local economies by empowering ordinary citizens through community investment and ownership. Chris has been working on community, economic, and entrepreneur development in Michigan for nearly 20 years,  in roles as varied as city official, board chair and Innovation Fellow.  As the City of Adrian’s economic developer he secured millions of grant dollars and matching private investments.  But he also developed a local investor group and championed Michigan’s MILE – an investment crowdfunding exemption that served as a national model. It’s all about community capital for Chris. If you'd like to join me in my quest to rethink real estate, there are two simple things you can do.

    Intentional Community.

    Early in her career, very early, Katie McCamant visited Copenhagen.  She was an architecture student studying abroad.  In Copenhagen she learned of a new housing model called co-housing -- a small intentional community of private homes clustered around a shared space. Common space usually includes a large kitchen, dining area and other common facilities, but will vary depending on each communities’ wants and needs. This was a brand new concept with just 8 projects built in Copenhagen and nowhere else in the world. Katie was wowed.  She was interested in housing in architecture and this model made so much sense to her.  So she wrote a couple of books and built a career on helping people build their own cohousing community, advising them from soup to nuts.

    Public Assets.

    As mayor of Salt Lake County a decade ago, Ben McAdams was frustrated that there wasn’t $500,000 in a $1.3 billion annual budget for a promising early childhood education program. Not one to permit defeat, he decided to map the value of the city’s underutilized real estate.  And that  yielded an impressive number: All of a sudden the city had $45 billion on its balance sheet. “I found out there is actually money under our mattress,” Ben says. “It's real estate that is just forgotten.” Since then Ben has spent time in politics as mayor, senator and congressman. But now he’s launched an incubator to help cities map their public assets, much like he did a decade ago, providing a path to solve issues that need money - like affordable housing and homelessness. Every city should listen in. If you'd like to join me in my quest to rethink real estate, there are two simple things you can do.

    For the love of cities.

    This is a long one.  But I couldn’t help myself.  You’ll soon see why. Enrique Penalosa is an exuberant lover of cities.  Equitable cities. He served as Mayor of Bogota, Colombia not once, but twice, profoundly transforming his city from one with no self-esteem into an international model. As Mayor, Enrique launched TransMilenio, a bus mass transit system, which today moves 2.4 million passengers daily. He also built an extensive bicycle network at a time when only a few northern European cities had one, along with greenways, hundreds of parks, sports and cultural centers, large libraries, 67 schools and a radical 33-hectare redevelopment in the heart of Bogota, previously controlled by drug dealers. This required demolishing more than 1200 buildings. Recently he published a new book called Equality and the City.  Look for it on Amazon. Of course, the accolades are too numerous to mention here. Enrique’s work is considered significant and influential by many and the list of awards is long.  There’s a lot to learn here.  More than an hour of podcasting can hold.

    #WeOwnThis

    Lyneir Richardson is building Black wealth through community-owned shopping centers. He has an audacious plan to buy 16 community shopping centers and invite 1,000 small investors to co-own them with his company, Chicago TREND.  He’s made a sizable dent in this goal with over 340 investors, and five shopping centers in his portfolio. This will be #6. To accomplish this, Lyneir and his team have developed a rigorous set of criteria for finding and buying shopping centers in majority Black Demographics that are on the cusp of change that might offer added value over a time. His plan is to empower Black entrepreneurs and community residents to have a meaningful ownership stake in the revitalization and continued vibrancy of commercial corridors and Black shopping districts. But there’s so much more! Lyneir wants every neighbor to be able to say "We Own This". If you'd like to join me in my quest to rethink real estate, there are two simple things you can do.

    Manufactured authenticity.

    In real estate development, envisioning how future societies will live can often feel like masterminding a high-tech work of science fiction.  Just outside of Houston, a new development of the future is emerging. But instead of flying cars and sky-scraping utopias, this version of Tomorrowland has its roots firmly and sustainably planted in days gone by. Indigo, a 235-acre community, is being developed by Scott Snodgrass and his partner Clayton Garrett, both farmers. They have thoughtfully gone against the norm in every aspect of this project, focusing first and foremost on people and a human-scale to encourage interaction.  Downsized lots and homes, a working farm, the integration of small businesses, careful attention paid to embracing everyone, all make this project one worth watching.

    Crowdfunding tax credits.

    Rich Rogers is an urban planner and attorney in Buffalo, New York. In his practice he focuses on tax credit financing and on creative problem-solving to help public and private sector projects work from concept into financing and implementation.  Rich is also a real estate developer, with a project in lease-up on Buffalo’s main street.  There he’s put his knowledge to good use, converting a 30,000 s.f. Historic building into modern retail and affordable housing units, and employing every trick in his book to build his super-complicated capital stack, which of course, includes tax credits. If that’s not enough, Rich has a crowdfunding platform called Common Owner focused on real estate and, you guessed it, crowdfunding tax credits as well. There’s a lot to learn here.  You’ll enjoy listening in. If you'd like to join me in my quest to rethink real estate, there are two simple things you can do.
