But that's just a question of joint investment. They can choose to wait and take their chances on getting a spot later, or of losing the benefits of that investment. Or they could just treat it as an investment and get their return later without moving in. Is it transferable? Refundable, once other funds are brought in? If so, I don't see the problem. It's about moving fast to take advantage of an opportunity and reduce costs; look at all the successful retro communities that came together without doing any building beforehand and THEN get to work on decisionmaking, CH space creation, creating community... without all the upfront expense and delay. Opportunities for it are rare, but you can certainly see the appeal!
