^ I sort of see your point, but I think in some ways you are tad bit off.
You aren’t finding cheap abandoned buildings to rehab (as this is your entire business model) in Little Village any more, so you’re left going to “black areas”. But you’re worried that after you sink money into these properties, you may not be rewarded for your effort, so now you’re bothered by racism.
First of all, I told you years ago not to quit your day job!
Secondly, there is nothing you are going to accomplish by griping that people are racist when the reason lots of people don’t want to live or do commerce in some of these areas have to do with lots of things—but crime and gang activity is the number one issue. Period.
Secondly, I think it’s great you restored your home in Irving Park and I applaud you for it. But if you are not planning to live where you invest, how can you expect others to?
I think you should find other ways to convince other people to rent from you than brow-beating them with accusations of “racism”. I just don’t think that is gonna to win too many people over.
