Preservationists need a different set of resources to be able to advocate for themselves, stories of the past, and the built environment.
In response to conversations with many of you, #DismantlePreservation Virtual Unconference will be a one day free event that will delve into mental health, unions/salary negotiations, public service loan forgiveness, implicit bias in preservation, preserving the full story, and how to expand who is investing in old buildings. Let’s dismantle historic preservation and rebuild it for the benefit of our communities today and tomorrow. The first class of the Unconference is:
“Preservation” and “real estate investing” typically conjure up images of wealthy elites with a treasure trove of money to capitalize on the hottest opportunities before others even catch wind that they exist. And rightfully so, traditional investing and capital markets were only for those in the know. But as social patterns have shifted, so have living preferences and the call for more equitable representation at all tables - preservation and real estate development included. 2020 taught us that business can no longer be conducted as usual. Forward thinking is required at the intersection of finance, honoring architecture and practical modernity. Housing Joint Venture is a unique real estate development and education firm on a mission to do just that by democratizing access to real estate investing. Tune in to this session to learn how they use a super boring, almost sleepy model to turn traditional capital markets on their head and deliver value-add real estate investments at scale.
