Churches Looking to Rent A Building And Take Ownership of Their Community

Lease your building from a mission-aligned landlord and put your capital back on mission!

The average church building is only fully utilized 5% of the week . We have lots of room in our schedules to share!

$1 TRILLION of real estate equity is tied up in US church buildings, which is enough to triple church planting for 180 years!

12% of companies own their own buildings. Why do 84% of churches own theirs? Why are we settling for 3% appreciationand a property tax exemption when the Kingdom of God sees returns of 30, 60, and 100 fold?

What if we could remove facilities distractions from churches and significantly reduce their cost?  What if we could help them put their capital back on mission?

Most facilities actually hinder the mission of the church because most churches don’t have access to good facilities. Current options are often in disrepair, lack a dedicated safe space for children’s ministry, require weekly set up or are temporary. Temporary facilities limit congregations because they have a limited shelf-life, lack visibility , volunteers burn out, and frequent moves hinder the congregation’s growth and stability.
