how is it a problem when gentrifiers take over and win with ease?

One thing you have to keep in mind, when they "win", it includes property values going up. That over time puts
the original residents out. Its one thing to invest in an area to make it economically pop, its another to take on the responsibility
without the intent of pimping the land for huge returns.

We need more like her.

The block I was raised on in Chicago is one giant lawn now. I've been looking into the details of buying lots recently

Shyt that's alot of properties out here. When they had the properties for a $1 I woulda scooped....you had to already own a home in the city tho.

I know a few brehs who flipped that for grants etc due to good relationship with alderman.

Ima need y'all to start tagging me in ALL Chicago threads even tho I seen this already

This is the first step in the master plan for building real black communities. String a few blocks together and you got a neighborhood. Schools, hospital, bank, and a supermarket then you're set. We'd have Atl's poppin up everywhere.

This is how the hasidic jews are takin over up north. They're buying blocks.

True & not selling your shyt to the first cac that offer a bag.

Buy The Block

Here's some info from the "How it Works" page.

"Buy The Block allows investors make debt or equity investments in opportunities that were historically difficult to access. Thanks to the Regulation Crowdfunding rules promulgated by the SEC under the JOBs Act, Buy the Block can create a community revolving around its web-based investment platform geared towards making investing in real estate easier for more investors. It presents an opportunity to invest with other connected investors, and provides the added benefit of giving each investor individual ownership in the “block.”

• Create an account.

• Creating a BlockVestor account is free and gives you access to invest in offerings that have been vetted through Buy The Block’s screening process.

• As a BlockVestor, you can vote on properties you want to invest in before committing.

• Ask questions directly to Block Developers and get answers to important questions

• Unlike other investment opportunities, Block Offerings have low minimums, starting investment amount of $100-$2,200, compared to the tens of thousands of dollars (and sometimes hundreds of thousands) required to participate in traditional real estate investment ventures.

• Utilize Buy the Block’s Learning Resources.

• Review an Investment thoroughly at your convenience.

• Every Block Offering features detailed information and a profile of any companies or individuals involved in the Block Offering.

• Finalize your investment if you decide to invest in a Block Offering, you can easily and securely sign legal documents and submit payment for your investment all on our portal.

• Monitor the fundraising progress for Block Developers to receive investment funds (and thus finalize your investment), the Block Offering must meet a certain minimum amount.

• Buy The Block will keep you updated via email and through your BlockVestor dashboard as to the progress of the all Block Offerings.

1). If a Block Offering in which you invested meets its minimum fundraising amount, you will be able to monitor its progress through your BlockVestor dashboard.



2). If a Block Offering in which you invested does not meet its minimum fundraising amount, 100% of your money will be returned to you with no fees or hidden charges.

• Transparent reporting, BlockVestors can monitor progress for all investments, including a project’s status and timeline, via your BlockVestor online dashboard.

• Block Developers will also provide weekly email updates for each successful Block Offering to its BlockVestors to include work completed, the project’s milestones for the coming weeks, and photos to demonstrate the progress of the project.

1. List of expenses a project’s escrow account balance and any draw-downs are noted in the dashboard.
2. For preferred equity (profit-sharing) investments, we upload an invoice for every expense to provide exceptional financial detail from Block Developers.
3. Status updates every week, we send out an update on the asset, the work covered and the project's milestones for coming weeks.
4. You receive this update in your dashboard and also via email.
5. Weekly photos from Block Developers to illustrate progress to investors.
6. Video updates investors also receive video updates on many investments, including walk-through or fly-byes of the site.
7. Education seminars and comprehensive updates to help you feel understand investing in securities via Buy The Block.
8. Support to help you utilize our platform to its full capabilities. "

So she didn't buy her block. She invested in a company run by a bald black woman.

Buy The Block

No black males involved at all.

Positivity. Things like this needs to be on all the black blogs and spreaded. This will inspire a lot of black people to follow her and learn more about it and do the same thing. Can't believe not one person posted Rozay. This needs to be the theme song
