Neal Bawa shared his mission in this interview, and that is to tackle America’s housing crisis by constructing 10,000 rental townhomes in carefully chosen markets. Fueled by the stark reality of soaring home prices and stagnant incomes leaving 18 million middle-class families without affordable starter homes, Neal aims to provide an alternative through affordable, brand-new townhomes for rent. Utilizing his data-driven prowess, Neal has pinpointed seven U.S. metros boasting the perfect blend of higher incomes and low construction costs. His initiative, Mission 10K, is more than a project—it’s a movement. Neal is actively seeking followers who resonate with the cause and want to participate.
