A Third Condemned House Demolished - The Deer Park & Habitat For Humanity Partnership

Before - January 2011


Hey Everyone,

I hope you are getting ready for the holiday season. I know we are. Thinks are hectic around the Duran Household, as Katie and I are wrapping presents, remodeling our offices, and planning strategies for next year's newsletter. With all these things to do, we always make sure we thank each other for the things we do for each other.

After - December 2011
In spirit of holiday thanks, I wish to thank Habitat for Humanity of Omaha and Wells Fargo for a wonderful Deer Park Christmas present. This week, a third condemned property in Deer Park was tore down as part of our partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Omaha, the Neighborhood Revitalization Initiative. This is a huge blessing, as this property, only one block from a great elementary school, was the first property identified for demolition less than one year ago.

What a great way to end 2011.

Thank You Palleton!!! We are Proud to Have You in Deer Park

Hey, Hey,
I an writing this post with a big smile. Why? I was doing my typical internet searches looking for people talking about our wonderful neighborhood, and I found a shout out from Palleton Inc..

They mention us on  their website and say they are a  "Proud member of the Deer Park Neighborhood Association - Omaha, NE".

I get so excited when a strong business leader in our community has pride in their neighborhood. You Rock Palleton!!!
