Comments from Investors,
Management Clients, and Property
Owners


    Over the years Neighborhood Enterprises and Sanctuary in the
    Ordinary have received support from many in local churches and the
    community at large.  Let  these comments from our support partners
    speak for themselves.

                                Investors

    Marie and I have participated in NE's ministry through gifts and loans
    since 1988.  We know our loans help to produce "sanctuaries in the
    ordinary" for ordinary folks.
                                             Ed Schroeder, Lutheran theologian and pastor
                      

    ...the NE/SITO use of a selective rehab system produces the largest amount of
    affordable, rental housing per dollar invested.  This fact plus a good yield on our
    investment encouraged us to invest our charitable housing dollars...

    ...I have loaned money over the years to Neighborhood Enterprises so
    that I could be a partner with NE in providing decent and dignified
    housing for lower income people.

                     Management Clients

    I have known Jim Roos and NE for over 20 years.  I admire Mr. Roos's commitment to
    providing low-income housing as his personal calling...
                                                    Wayne Crosslin, newspaper photographer
                       

    Jim Roos has managed my rental properties in St. Louis for
    nearly 30 years.  I have been more than satisfied and I never fret
    about the buildings.
                                       Mary Ann Kerstetter, Greenville, Texas
                      

    I have owned property in the Gate District since around 1985 and I
    have used NE as my property manager all the while.  NE has a group of
    employees who are committed, dedicated, and trustworthy.    Jim Roos, the
    president, has a ministry vision that is morally sound and uplifting for the
    neighborhood.
