“Grow the Pie”: Share Resources
The Jumpstart approach is more collaborative than competitive. By sharing resources and information, Jumpstart participants can do more together than they can do alone.
- Developer Network Events are designed to facilitate relationship-building and foster networks and partnerships between Jumpstart Wilmington program participants and members of the development community.
- According to the “80/20 rule,” only 20 percent of people in real estate openly share information and resources”. Let’s grow the 20 percent!
The Jumpstart Wilmington Developer Network is one of the many ways to share information and resources. Our Facebook Group and LinkedIn is another!
About Jumpstart Wilmington
Jumpstart Wilmington was launched to help Wilmington residents to become developers of their own neighborhood through quality, community-focused real estate development training and financing options. Our program is modeled after the original Jumpstart Germantown Program, which was created by Ken Weinstein to facilitate the revitalization of the Germantown neighborhood of Philadelphia through high quality residential renovations.
Increased local developer capacity in Wilmington is the key to scaling development activity and revitalizing communities more rapidly. We see residents of Wilmington communities as the best resource for neighborhood revitalization, as many have potential to effect positive change in their neighborhoods. Jumpstart Wilmington can provide aspiring developers who live in Wilmington communities with the skills, knowledge, and support they need to rehabilitate key properties, one at a time. In the absence of established real estate developers willing to invest in smaller scale projects, this program will cultivate a force of new local developers who currently reside in Wilmington or have a commitment to improving Wilmington neighborhoods.
