Growing up on Indy’s west side, Terone Johnson and Omari Heflin never thought about a future career in real estate. Now, they are looking to get other involved.
“I didn't even know about it,” Johnson said. “Just because there wasn't people in front of us that was doing it, that looked like us.”
“It's good and bad every day,” Heflin said. “It's business, it's real business, but we love it. We beautify our communities.”“Just last week, bought a property over in the area, a street from where we grew up at and it's just like surreal, the same street we used to go down,” Heflin said. “Our general focus is areas where there is gentrification because that is where the city or where investors are kind of pushing those areas, those markets,” Heflin said. “So we come in and we try to take those different properties that are still opportunities for us. We fix those up, but it's still affordable usually within the $100,000-$200,000 price range, which is typically a first-time homeowner or buyer.
“Homeownership should be more accessible. People should understand it and people should have it,” Heflin said. “That's why we have different events and education to help people get into real estate investing, or at least bare minimum homeownership.”
