Betterhood

betterhood is a nonprofit organization working in the real estate space. betterhood's flagship project, entrepreneurial housing, combines and makes attainable home ownership with income producing assets. entrepreneurial housing creates a paradigm shift in affordable housing and social and financial entrepreneurship. this concept targets the problem of absentee landlords and substandard housing in economically challenged neighborhoods with an inside out solution by creating resident landlords with a vested interest in their communities rather than by policing the offenders. this is achieved through real estate ownership, a landlord education program and new, high-quality, rental housing. this new way of thinking replaces traditional large-scale neighborhood gentrification with a scalable infill approach that gives residents a profit and equity position with potential impact nationwide.
