Street Sweep 003 — Broad Ripple Park
40 degrees & misting. What a beautiful morning it was last Friday at 8 AM cleaning the streets of Broad Ripple.

Thank you to the ~20 who joined us to brave the elements. It seems like every time we have one of these it is freezing cold and raining. But maybe that is the purpose — because if it was easy, everyone would be out doing it.

3 things I reflected on after:

1. WOW — Broad Ripple was surprisingly super clean.

2. Our intentional actions can make so much of a difference if we allow them.

3. I am so incredibly lucky to be surrounded by the people I am surrounded by — and there is a genuine hunger in Indianapolis to make this a great place to live, work, & play.

Missed this one? Reply back and I will get you on the list for Garfield Park in April.

Now — three off-market rentals just hit my list, plus my own listing that cash flows from day one. Three deals below. Let’s get it. 👇
