Cohousing-L Mailing List: Quantifying the value of community

[cameron rabe (camrabe]

In the process of pricing units has anyone tried to
quantify the value of cohousing? There was a thread
awaile back that touched upon the idea of a "cohousing
premium" - the amount above market value that a buyer
would be willing to pay to live in cohousing. Is this
outweighed by other perceived "negatives" - limited
resale potential, less privacy, work requirements,
etc. Does the legal structure of the community (condo
v coop) make a difference? Has anyone tried to tackle
this?


Thanks,

Cameron
