    Super inspiring story!. This is what it takes to uplift the city. The people.

      I'm from Detroit as well. I live in Minnesota now, and I love it!! she has to price those (with a cap) where the rent NEVER increases so families can establish themselves. This has been the PROBLEM in all states with any kind of rental, whether mobile home lot rents, apartments, or house rentals. Detroit would also benefit from changing some zoning laws by adding Tiny home communities and more gated communities. I was hoping for Kamala Harris as our next President because of all her incentive based, and start-up business plans. Detroit can come back with people like this sister with her vision because neighborhood PRIDE will become contagious.

    Detroit is lucky to have people like Candus. She’s not just in it to make a profit, she’s got a vision and a mission. I hope you show us more of this project as it progresses.

      This woman will accomplish big things its just how we are built in this city but. Detroit has alot of people of this mindset, its rarely talked about. America would rather market and talk about our city as abandoned, violent and a rise from the ash type city. When most of Detroit residents are homeowners East to. West, and southwest Black businesses throughout the City of Detroit. With that said the politics and corruption of this city is y we have faced the problems we have faced throughout out the years, its not as simple as seeing this video and saying aye "Detroit yall should be glad yall have people like her,...lol does it suprise u that we have brilliant and innovative people here that has inspired not only black America but also the globe.😂✊🏾🙏🏾

    I LOVE seeing black women developers. I am looking to get my foot in the door I found out about development through research and after studying analyzing property comps, looking into affordable and sustainable housing roles, and my passion for design.

    you energy speaks volumes, and your mission statement will be etched on the hearts of all, and the capacity to build a bridge in a place where faith and hope was such a distance to safely get to that it was wiped out, just for you to construct a beautiful merging of community contribution and creating a place where contribution is a valued investment for all, because its such an area of opportunity of untapped potential to shift the quality of all life! thank everyone and every thing that made this moment and all the energy before it to power this into motion!

    You're completely getting rid of gas? Isn't it going to be more expensive to run a furnace, water heater, and clothes dryer with electricity, especially in the winter? I thought the reason most of us had gas for those things in Michigan is because of our cold winters.
