Actor and real estate developer Malik Yoba's company, Yoba Development, is hosting an event called 'Flipping The Hood' to empower the Black community through real estate education and wealth-building strategies.
The event, taking place on May 9 and May 10 at the Brooklyn Naval Yard, will feature hands-on workshops led by seasoned real estate professionals, providing attendees with tactical advice on investing, acquiring property, and building financial legacies, with a focus on historically underserved neighborhoods.
Speakers at the event include Valerie White, Julien Gordon, and David Adefeso, who will address topics related to real estate, entrepreneurship, wellness, art, and education, with the aim of equipping attendees with tools to build intergenerational wealth and reclaim economic power in their communities.
