Cohousing-L Mailing List: Project Coordinator Job Description

[Luk Jonckheere (l.jonckheere]

Hello,
Somewhere (dont remember where) I found a (short) description of the work a
developer does for you. I believe most of it could apply to the job of a
project coordinator as well.

<<A developer handles all the nitty gritty details of hiring and
coordinating architects, contractors, lawyers, etc., applying for the
construction loan, setting up long, long spreadsheets, etc. They understand
zoning laws and financing. They have a track record so construction loans
are easier to get. In addition to providing expertise, they provide their
reputation for completing projects.
Developers also understand a key point: What costs what and when the cost is
greater than the benefit to the customer. They are not fool-proof. Real
estate development is hard and filled with pitfalls. But it is less hard
with a professional on board than without.>>

Hope it's helpful
bye, greetings from Belgium,
(where 2 starting groups are active, one creating a group, the other
securing land.)
