Early in his career, Jim Heid worked on humongous real estate projects all over the world as a management consultant. Over time, the diversity of places he lived and worked in shaped his appreciation of small, community-centric places with soul. He moved his head and heart from a loft in downtown San Francisco to the tiny 12,000-person town of Healdsburg in California, where he is building his thesis that small is big.
There are some big things that Jim is working on. They include his small-scale developer forums, which are growing bigger. A recently published book called "Building Small: A Toolkit for Real Estate Entrepreneurs, Civic Leaders and Great Communities" and real estate projects that are small and meaningful.
Jim Heid has found his tribe. Slowly but surely, he is bringing together like-minded thinkers with his forums, his book and his real estate projects. His path from big to small is inspirational.
