Happy New Year!

This is the time of year when I always feel like I have a fresh slate. The old year is past with all its challenges, disappointments, and failures. At the beginning of a new year, I recall Winston Churchill's words. He said, "Success is going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm." I can start afresh on my goals and dreams. What happened last year doesn't matter; all that matters is what I do with today.

Recently, we have been concentrating on Metro Los Angeles. That area is one that has been especially hard-hit by foreclosures. Many people have lost their homes; many have also lost their jobs. The South Bay Help Center is being organized to address those needs. We are building a team, comprised of people from many vocations, to assist us in developing programs, financing, and volunteer assistance. We plan to incorporate some special needs housing to help provide ongoing financial support to project. Currently, we envision a diner to provide low-cost, high-nutrition meals--as well as job training; a thrift/consignment shop; a counselling center; and some office space and conference rooms for small businesses and/or non-profits.

Additionally, we are looking into the feasibility of working with the city to renovate single family homes that will be made available at affordable cost, either for sale or for rent. Other investment possibilities that would help to undergird our efforts in LA County are also being considered, including multi-family properties and a high-end SFR development. I will post updates on this project, so bookmark this site to stay current.

We would be interested in hearing from anyone in the area who is interested in working with us. You may send an email to our Director of Operations.

We are excited about what we can accomplish in 2010. May this New Year be prosperous and fulfilling for you and yours.

Why Metro Detroit?

The Metropolitan Detroit area has seen some of the largest numbers of home foreclosures in the United States, which has created a large market of low-cost housing available for purchase. While some people have left the area, most are staying, and this has created a strong rental market.

As the auto industry's importance begins to fade in the area, there are new industries moving in. Businesses have found that Michigan has a wealth of Engineers, and are beginning to move to the area to utilize this talent. Also, Governor Granholm has recently passed legislation that offers tax breaks to film production companies that operate and film in the state of Michigan. This development has earned Metro Detroit the new nickname of the "Hollywood of the Midwest".

Even with the recent struggles of American automakers there are still major automotive projects that will be focused in Metro Detroit. For example, a new police car design/build and the Chevy Volt battery. These new ventures will bring new people to the area as well as allow others the opportunity to change residences. This will create a demand for affordable housing, and that is what DQA Investments, Inc. can provide.
