1DAAT (formerly McLemore Holdings) was created by a homeless man who suffered from various barriers hindering his ability to secure safe and affordable housing. Gainfully employed, but still living on a garage floor. After several long months, he finally found a place he could call home. Unfortunately, his first rental unit was owned by a predatory landlord. Forced to pay an exorbitant amount of rent, for a very small space, caused the cycle to continue and he was eventually homeless once again. This time with debt, a deeply damaged credit score, no savings, and a documented eviction (Unlawful Detainer).
