We are big fans of alternative #HousingJustice models such as co-ops, CLTs, and communities/tenants buying together! Our question is, can there also be a movement of just landlords and property management? #SubversiveEquity
Can there be an "adequate return" that is not getting filthy rich that allows rent to increase *slowly,* reduce tenant turnover (which is expensive), and allow mutual thriving? We believe it is possible. #SubversiveEquity
The entirety of Paris, Barcelona, and Manhattan can all fit inside the land dedicated to surface parking in Los Angeles County (101 sq. mi). If all the surface parking lots in the county were converted, you would house an additional 5.85 million people, a 58% increase.

Land (and home) ownership is a fundamental justice and equity issue in this country. We must advocate, organize, and disrupt the forces of capitalism & greed working against the the majority of us.
