Election Day 2024 with Chase Cantrell
On the eve of the 2024 Election Day, Donna and Orlando sat down with the Executive Director of Building Community Value (BCV), Chase Cantrell.
BCV is a Detroit-based non-profit organization dedicated to equipping residents with tools to shape their neighborhoods.
They recently announced the launch of their first-ever online course, “Real Estate Development: Building Value in Your Community.” Hosted on Coursera, the course aims to teach aspiring real estate developers the fundamentals of real estate development, including development stages, team building, project feasibility, social impact, and financial modeling.
This innovative online course, developed in close collaboration with the University of Michigan Center for Academic Innovation (CAI), marks a significant shift for BCV. Traditionally focused on in-person training for residents of Detroit, Hamtramck, and Highland Park, the online course is now accessible to learners worldwide, fostering real estate and community development skills on a scale far beyond SE Michigan.
