Seeding Housing Hacks & Real Estate Unconferences in Boston in 2018

• What we'll do

February 6th marks the 3rd Anniversary of Zillow's HackHousing event in Seattle (see photo above). Recognizing the potential for multiple housing hacks and real estate unconferences this year, @ImpactHubBos has invited us to be part of their Open Project Night tomorrow at 50 Milk St in Boston: We'll use the occasion to learn what we can from four previous events:

1. Zillow's HackHousing: Seattle, Feb 2015
