If it takes a village to raise a child, we better believe it takes a network of several villages, towns and cities to scale an idea to commercial success and sustainable impact. The amazing team at #TheCleanFightNYC has developed a very effective platform that launches several partnerships in every cohort.  Having graduated as part of cohort 1, I am thrilled to call on all entrepreneurs and innovators seeking to enable #decarbonization – this time focused on retrofitting multifamily low-to-moderate income (LMI) and affordable housing within New York City and State. Solutions can be wide-ranging from products and systems to services including maintenance and financing: - Energy Efficiency and Electrification Solutions - Retrofit Navigation Solutions - Innovative Financing Solutions - Insurance, Warranties, and Maintenance Guarantees Participants will benefit from the various stakeholders of the ecosystem from raising awareness, generating interest in investments, creating channel alliances and many more strategic advantages towards scaling your innovative solutions! Applications close on Jan 13th!   #NYSERDA #USEconomicDevelopmentAdministration

In the evolving landscape of investing, where many chase the glitter of conventional assets, sophisticated investors are pivoting towards alternative investments. Heading the pack are Multifamily Homes, Storage Units, Build-to-Rents, and the promising Energy sector. • Multifamily Homes This asset class has proven exceptionally resilient during economic downturns. By providing an essential human need - shelter - multifamily assets ensure robust occupancy rates and consistent rent payments, two components essential for stable cash flow. • Storage Units The self-storage industry, often overlooked, is an unsung hero of the investment world. Low maintenance costs, high profitability potential, and relative stability make storage units a surprising but compelling investment choice. • Build to Rents A well-conceived strategy to build rental properties from the ground up, BTR projects tap into the cultural shift to a rent-versus-own mindset. Unlike traditional individual rental units, BTR projects offer a community, delivering a new layer of value to attract and retain tenants. • Energy Instrumental for economic growth and stability, the energy sector presents an opportunity to leverage your portfolio. Increasing demand, together with the surge in renewable and 'green' initiatives, suggest a glowing outlook in this area. Remember, each alternative investment has its unique risk-to-reward ratio and requires careful examination. My golden rule of investing remains, Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Consider these non-traditional alternatives to boost your wealth-building potential while diversifying your investment portfolio. As we embark on this journey, let's champion sound decision-making, strategic investments, and guided exploration of these lesser-known yet lucrative paths. Nothing ventured, nothing gained! To all my fellow visionaries, innovators, and pioneers out there, let's continue to challenge the conventional and embrace the unconventional. Throughout, let's make certain, we do so intelligently, for #empcfund, #bethanyfinch, #kylieegan, #amhs, #passiveinvesting, and all those making a difference in the #investing landscape today. Cheers!
