Are you looking for someone to help you do something auction- or property-related? Do you provide a service you think a new property owner can use? Have a project idea you want people to know about and get involved in? Send us a short description at team@makeloveland.com and we'll post it here in a work-y, job-y, project-y catch-all.
Examples: "I need someone to inspect a property for me." "I do home deconstructions." "I need a vacant lot mowed." "I'm looking for a lawyer to help me figure something out." "I want to build shipping container houses on this lot, who's in?"

Projects:
• Looks like some possible interest in crowfunding a project at the Patterson Terrace ruins in Brush Park: 203 Erskine (see the comment thread).
• There's some talk of possibly purchasing a few otherwise un-purchased blighted homes and deconstructing them. Drop a line to jerry@makeloveland.com if you're interested in more as a potential funder or contractor. Deconstruction is a greener and ideally more cost-effective alternative to demolition where homes are taken apart piece by piece so its contents can be re-used and re-sold rather than sitting wasted in a landfill.
• As a general idea, check out the No Property Left Behind concept to purchase properties that don't receive bids and land bank them.
