Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: questions on cohousing rentals

[Gerald Manata (gmanata2003]

-------At OCC, the amount of units rented out has mushroomed to 9. We also 
had./have onsite owners with one or more roommates and renters with one or more 
roommates(subrenters). We are in the process of addressing how to handle this 
now.-----------------------------------

 Hi
 Nancy,
 
 At Windsong we
 minimize differences between renters and owners. Both
 have
 equal decision making authority in
 meetings (except perhaps the AGM, I'd
 have to check that as it's never come up),
 both pay the same strata fee,
 both have the
 same expectations. I find this works extremely well - many
 of
 our renters eventually become owners, and
 so can do so without having been
 "lesser" community members first.
 Even those who don't become owners
 probably have better buy-in to the community as
 they know they are equally
 respected and
 valued in the community.
 
 We
 don't cap the number of renters.
 
 Cheers,
 Daniel
