Increase the property value for whom the Homeowner or the Bank? Property value is not based on the value of your property but the value of the properties that surround yours. If your house is located in the areas of and by no means am I singling any of the following areas (The Boulders,Trend,Oaky Flats, 5th St. E. & Q-7, or even the Acres) out the properties are not improved on therefore you could not sell yours & profit from it’s actual value.Even if you have no intentions of selling your home, the bank ends up with it when you cannot afford to pay back the loans, the mortgages, and the refinancing you had to borrow just to “cost-effectively” upgrade your home.

Improve property value? Are they going to tell us how to get the section 8 renters out of the neighborhood?
Son of the Anti Rex says
that sounds like what Rex sounded like when he declared war on section 8. not very nice.
Greg says
Convince the property owners that they will get guaranteed rent and repair costs then they will drop Section 8 from the rental. Since that is unlikely , they will stay with it.
