Sylvia I think a Cohousing Savings and Loan is just what we need. Thanks for bringing this up again. Many years ago we talked about a cohousing bank, but no banker stepped up to take on the challenge. I don't know if there's a banker among us today who might be able to do so. Imagine all those cohousing and intentional community homeowners association reserve funds on deposit in big financial institutions that could be used for creating more cohousing. Land acquisition loans, construction loans, take out mortgages, even second mortgages and down payment assistance.
