From Section 8 Sherpa to Katrina Rebuilder
Thanks so much to SteveW(MD) from the community for posting a link to a story he stubmled upon on NPR today.
It’s a short story on Hal Roark and his post Katrina work in New Orleans.
For those who’ve been hanging around here for a while, Hal’s one of the original “gray hairs” from years ago. You may recall that he authored a killer course on Section 8 / Landlording (currently out of print).
But since Katrina, he’s been dedicated to rebuilding. In a few conversations with Steve he’s shared candidly how the post-Katrina rebuilding has become a real ministry for him.
This story’s worth a listen (or read) for anyone who wants to catch up on Hal a little, or anyone who wants to ponder some of the other uses for real estate investors besides making gobs and gobs of money.
Enjoy!
