We like big box stores but we love building supply more.

Asking a valid and concerning question— will the Crenshaw / LAX rail line finally open — and open now, because of the upcoming Super Bowl being held in Los Angeles 2022? The Crenshaw / LAX line broke ground in 2013 after years of planning. The rail line construction closed businesses and interrupted those remaining; it has also impacted the community because of construction , business closures and street damage. It’s impacted the community because a promise has yet to be kept and fulfilled. The last in person meeting in Fall 2019 discussed the failure to open on time, however we are ending 2021 and a large money making franchise and it’s money making hype that spreads throughout any town that hosts a large scale event, leads me to believe that my sarcasm and cynical comment about waiting until the Olympics 2028 are held to finally open the train and connect The Historic South Central Los Angeles to the international airport, but we may be surprised by an opening and receiving the taxes paid gift for the visitors of Super Bowl LVI. The most efficient way to move around Los Angeles proper is train, not bus— because we know the lack of frequency with Metro buses compared to Santa Monica, Culver City, Redondo, Foothill Transit, or Omnitrans. I can type these other agencies because I’ve used them first hand, and there’s a much different rider experience. Here’s to hoping I am wrong about Olympic 2028 and right about Super Bowl LVI (2022), which is still a slap in the face to the community but allows for transit — moving the community / city to one place or another for business or pleasure.

You remember the episode of Sex & The City where Carrie mindlessly walks down the NY street and turns the corner to realize she’s not in Kansas anymore? Aka the revitalization and beautification stopped— only scheduled for one block and not the surrounding neighborhoods. Economic and community development, paired with community benefit brings together everything needed and required for a thriving and robust living /business environment. Money is needed to build and to purchase , business owners are needed for ideas and providing solutions or products to the community; jobs are created; ownership by pride in oneself and ownership by deed, or lease agreement showcases the way in which money flows — land owner , building owner, store owner, consumer and consumer, store owner, building owner, land owner. Government isn’t the only creator of economic and community development, the people and businesses are an intricate part of the puzzle. #landbaroness #developer #retirement #builder #economicdevelopment #communitybenefit #investor #wealth #realestate

Rarely have I seen an opportunity so big that will create a large impact and ripple effect in the community for generations to come. There’s an opportunity to develop a project that is in the heart of Black Los Angeles aka The Historic South Central Los Angeles that has been neglected and abandoned by its owners. The owners have built throughout the city, with other properties owned or through partnerships , but did not here. THE OPPORTUNITY is for community members , former residents, property owners, and those who want to support the concept of legacy, self sufficiency, sustainability , in culture, color, community and construction for this project. Ways you can be impactful ? The seemingly insignificant- picking up trash and washing the exterior of your home or building, repainting. The larger impacts — investing money to make the new development possible.

In this episode of All Things Real Estate with Land Baroness she discusses how economic, community and education development improve and elevate a city, how they’re requirements for a thriving city. There’s a current promotion for Redistricting throughout Los Angeles County, so Marisha Morris discusses redistricting and how the boundary lines - boundaries, borders, and what is excluded matters. #leadership #business #success #redistricting #realestate #landbaroness #losangeles #BlackLA #thehistoricsouthcentrallosangeles #community #communitydevelopment #economicdevelopment #landuse

Discussion includes: Crenshaw Crossing a development awaiting approval in The Historic South Central Los Angeles; SB9; P3 and what P3 now means to Land Baroness. EDIT/ERROR: I refer to the Crenshaw Crossing location as the north side of Exposition, it is the Southside. It is the former Earl’s HotDog location on the east side of Crenshaw and what was the LA County Probation building #realestate #communitydevelopment #economicdevelopment #wealth #ownit #TOD #TOC #TPP

Are you aware Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors discussions last year (2020) produced an ordinance implemented THIS YEAR? Deadline for compliance was extended from November 1, 2021 to January 1, 2022. During this time period the filing fee of $90 is waived. If you are a landlord or property owner (of a property you don’t physically live in), this applies to you. Los Angeles County stretches far and wide, and ALL of the incorporated cities of LA CO are required to complete the registration. #BaldwinHills #ClaremontIslands #Ladera #DelAire #MarinaDelRey #Catalina #Westfield #Lennox #Athens #Citrus #Calabasas #Agoura #redpill #landbaroness #allthingsrealestate #podcast

I call this the Side A version of “How I got interested in real estate” because this discusses my interest and what attracted me as young child to building and historic preservation compared to the prior podcast which details (summary) how my interest and love grew starting with a train coming through my neighborhood and a pending foreclosure increased my involvement and placed me back where I originally started - real estate.
