#WeOwnThis

Rethink Real Estate. For Good.

Lyneir Richardson is building Black wealth through community-owned shopping centers.

He has an audacious plan to buy 16 community shopping centers and invite 1,000 small investors to co-own them with his company, Chicago TREND. He’s made a sizable dent in this goal with over 340 investors, and five shopping centers in his portfolio. This will be #6.

To accomplish this, Lyneir and his team have developed a rigorous set of criteria for finding and buying shopping centers in majority Black Demographics that are on the cusp of change that might offer added value over a time. His plan is to empower Black entrepreneurs and community residents to have a meaningful ownership stake in the revitalization and continued vibrancy of commercial corridors and Black shopping districts.

But there’s so much more!

Lyneir wants every neighbor to be able to say "We Own This".
