My assumption is that a house in a cohousing community will cost about the same as a much bigger house in a similar (non-coho) neighborhood, because of the common elements, especially the Common House, that goes into everyone's unit price. Is my assumption right, or is cohousing really a lot more expensive than a similar but bigger house in a somewhat equivalent middle or slightly upper-middle class neighborhood? By the way, we have two units for sale now at $230K and $250K. They're both small, probably just right for 1 person or a couple, each with a space for a roommate to help pay the mortgage. That doesn't seem very elitist to me. But we're not in a major city or a happening place like Asheville. Muriel at Shadowlake Village Cohousing in Blacksburg
