About us

Families are being displaced from their homes by private interests. Over 60% of properties in Montebello alone are owned by developers, giving them the power to alter the community for their own profit through gentrification, rezoning, and leasing of mineral rights to fossil fuel extraction companies. This usually leads to reduced property values, which also reduces the personal wealth of families. This impacts the quality of life for entire communities, affecting homelessness, poverty, and crime rates.

This situation has evolved to and persists because private homeowners lack access to the knowledge and legal tools that would enable them to control and protect the ownership of their property and personal wealth under the current economic system. You and your family have worked too hard in attaining your property to not truly own all rights to it. This has resulted in high incidences of homes tied up in probate after losing a loved one, reverse mortgages, bankruptcies, and displacement.
