Empowering Communities
Buy Back the Block is a community-led initiative that aims to revitalize urban areas through economic development programs and initiatives. Our main focus is on empowering community members to purchase businesses and commercial real estate in their local communities, keeping the dollars circulating within the community for longer. We support the purchase of existing businesses, the transformation of empty commercial locations into thriving businesses, and the collective purchase of residential buildings by the residents themselves.

Revitalizing urban areas through economic development
Building Stronger Neighborhoods.
- Purchase Existing Businesses
- We support community members in purchasing already existing businesses in their local area, ensuring that these establishments continue to thrive and contribute to the economic growth of the community.
- Transform Empty Commercial Locations
- Through collective efforts, we take polls for business ideas and transform empty commercial locations into vibrant and successful businesses. This helps to fill vacant spaces and attract more customers to the area.
- Collective Residential Building Ownership
- We encourage community members to come together and purchase the buildings they live in from the owners. This empowers residents to have a stake in their own neighborhood and contribute to its development and improvement.
