We're documenting everything.

The financial models that work.

The grant applications that don't.

The community meetings that get tense.

The policy barriers that make no sense.

Building in Public

Most developers keep their secrets.

We're sharing ours.

On Medium, we're documenting the real journey of developing affordable housing - the actual numbers, the obstacles nobody warns you about, and what we're learning as we build Pivot Forward Properties from the ground up.

What You'll Find:

✍️ Zero-debt financing structures with real numbers
✍️ Grant application strategies (and failures) from the field
✍️ Policy analysis backed by doctoral research and practice
✍️ Behind-the-scenes project updates from our development pipeline
✍️ The housing crisis explained - why teachers can't afford rent, what happens when families "over-qualify," and why the middle housing gap is breaking communities

No fluff.

No theory.

Just boots-on-the-ground insight from someone actually building affordable housing projects and disrupting a broken system.

Weekly articles.

Real data.

Zero gatekeeping.

Because housing justice requires transparency.
