One cohousing group here in RI ran into this same problem a couple of years ago. I'm sad to say, they ultimately folded, unable to get beyond this catch 22 situation. As our senior cohousing group is not thrilled with the idea of getting stuck like this, I, too, would be very happy to hear of how others have managed this!
