Breathing new life into neglected spaces to build stronger communities.

We are overjoyed to share a transformative milestone with our community! We are proud to announce that RS Development Group has acquired the property at 143 Riverside Avenue in Gilman, Vermont. This marks the beginning of our first-ever project—a mission-driven initiative to replace what once stood with something entirely new: a thoughtfully designed home that will serve as a haven of safety and stability for survivors of domestic abuse.

Why This Project Matters

At RS Development Group, we believe in more than just reusing spaces—we believe in starting fresh. The property at 143 Riverside Avenue will not be restored. We select properties that have been neglected beyond simple repair in an effort to do greater good for the community. Instead, we will be completely reimagining the property to create a brand-new, purpose-built home. This is about more than architecture; it's about fostering hope, security, and a sense of belonging for those who need it most.

This site, once overlooked, now holds the promise of becoming a cornerstone of support for individuals and families who have faced immense challenges. By transforming this property into a welcoming home, we are not only meeting a critical housing need, but also honoring the spirit of renewal and resilience within the Gilman community.

The Road Ahead

Th e work at 142 Riverside Avenue is deeply personal for us. It represents the start of a journey to build homes—not just houses—for those who deserve more than temporary, often uncomfortable, solutions. Survivors of domestic abuse often need more than a roof over their heads; they need a place to rebuild their lives, reclaim their dignity, and look forward to brighter days ahead.

This new home will reflect the care and consideration we pour into every project. It will be crafted with comfort, safety, and long-term stability in mind, ensuring it becomes a true sanctuary for its future residents. By partnering with organizations dedicated to supporting survivors, we're creating a bridge to a better tomorrow.

Building Together

Our journey w ill involve collaboration with local contractors, artisans, and suppliers who share our vision. By working with the talented individuals and businesses in the region, we're investing in the community and creating a ripple effect of growth and opportunity. The character of rural New England, and the love behind a home are at the heart of everything we build, and this project will reflect that authenticity and pride.

Looking Ahead

We're excited to document every step of this process—from the first designs to the day the front door opens for its new occupants. Through updates, photos, and stories, we invite you to join us on this journey of transformation. This isn't just about one home; it's about creating a safe and welcoming space where survivors of domestic abuse can rebuild their lives and thrive.

And then, we'll do it again.

With Gratitude

None of this would be possible without the incredible support of our partners, community, and team. Your belief in our mission fuels our work and inspires us to keep striving for a brighter future.

At RS Development Group, this is only the beginning. With every home we build, we take another step toward creating a world where everyone has a place to feel safe, loved, and hopeful.

Together, let’s build that future.
