Thanks so much for joining me today for the latest episode of Impact Real Estate Investing. Two years ago after a substantial career in economic development, Patrick Quinton co-founded a startup in Portland, Oregon. Dweller manufactures Accessory Dwelling Units with the goal of addressing the very pressing housing needs of that city. Patrick knew that the city had the most ADU friendly code of just about anywhere, a 32x14 foot ADU could be set into a typical 50x100 foot lot without hitting the setbacks, and without requiring city design review. And so, Dweller was founded. You'll want to hear more. Be sure to go to EvePicker.com to find out more about Patrick on the show next page for this episode, and be sure to sign up for my newsletter so you can access information about impact real estate investing and get the latest news about the exciting projects on my crowdfunding platform, Small Change.</p> <p><strong><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></strong></p> <p><strong>Eve:</strong> [00:01:35] Hello Patrick!

And you've had a pretty substantial financial and economic development career. So, I'm wondering what prompted you to move to the uncertainty of a startup life?</p> <p><strong><!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --></strong></p> <p><strong>Patrick Quinton:</strong> [00:02:01] Yeah, I sometimes ask myself
