>> Yeah, the challenges are really macro issues.
I mean, we work in a difficult macro environment.
We call it a value-deficit environment, which is really fancy way of basically saying
that if you renovate a house, it's worth less after you renovate it than what it cost you.
So I simple analogy is image the Hershey Company makes candy bars for $1.50,
and they can only sell it for $1.00.
If they continue to do that, they're going to go out of business pretty quick.
We face that challenge every day.
We go in, and we renovate houses.
We build houses.
They're worth about 30 to 40 percent less than what it cost us.
So on each property that we rehab, for instance, we lose,
on average, about 30 to 50 thousand dollars.
How we plug that gap, that value deficit, to use that fancy term again,
is essentially through grant funding from the Commonwealth.
It is unrestricted grant funding, so we have no restrictions on in terms
of income or anything similar to that.
We are doing market rate housing and attracting market rate buyers, but that gap piece
and that grant money is really critical to allowing those projects to be completed.
We're -- it sounds kind of grandiose to put it this way, and I never focus on --
I never say this on a day-to-day level except in context like this,
but we are impacting the bill environment, and it impacts, then, how people live their lives.
And so on a very small scale, we're changing how people live, and in a sense, changing the world.
And it's in a very modest way, but it's really gratifying to see that every day.
