For investors & sponsors

For investors who want more than $20 in.

The community pool is at $20 a head. This is the page for everyone else — sponsors, in-kind partners, and the people watching the for-profit track.

What we're building

Land acquisition

We bid at county tax-deed and tax-lien auctions. The pipeline keeps growing — 2 lots won, 6 more on our research list for Spring/Fall 2026.

Build-out

Soil, raised beds, fencing, water infrastructure, and tool sheds. Small-batch, neighborhood-scale projects with community labor and oversight.

MHE Estates LLC track

A separate, for-profit entity is in formation for buy-and-hold and rental tracks. CommunityAcre supporters get a first look when it structures its first equity round.

Deal-flow so far

Two parcels won in our first auction cycle. Both well below assessed value.

Three ways to get involved

$5K–$25K

Sponsor a lot

Cover the acquisition + build-out for a specific lot. Named sponsor on the parcel signage, dedicated reporting, and right-of-first-refusal on the next lot in that neighborhood.

Materials & services

In-kind partner

Donate lumber, soil, landscaping services, or skilled trade time. Same recognition as a sponsor, deductible at fair market value via Fortis Proles Inc. (501(c)(3)).

TBD per round

For-profit interest

Be on the list when MHE Estates LLC structures its first equity round. Buy-and-hold rental properties, financed through a more conventional structure than the impact pool.

Disclosures. CommunityAcre is a community impact pool, not an investment offering. Tax-deductible contributions are routed through Fortis Proles Inc., a 501(c)(3) public charity, via Zeffy. No financial returns are promised on charitable contributions.

This page is informational. Nothing on it constitutes an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security. Any future for-profit equity offering (e.g., MHE Estates LLC) will be made only by formal offering documents, with all required disclosures, to qualified participants.
