I checked out the author of the Motley Fool article a bit and wrote to the one cohousing community in Lansing, MI where the author is located (one mile from his office!) (see copy of my messages below) Note that Ann Arbor with 3 active cohousing communities is only 65 miles away. Fred -- Fred H.

Fred Olson manager of the Cohousing-L email discussion here. Genesee Gardens Cohousing (GCC) in Lansing, Michigan came to mind today because of your location in Lansing. Cohousing-L had a discussion yesterday about "Sr Cohousing Hits Mainstream Investing: Motley Fool" http://lists.cohousing.org/archives/cohousing-l/msg44878.html written by Kevin Vandenboss of commercial real estate broker and president of Vandenboss Commercial. 120 N Washington Square Suite 303, Lansing, MI 48933 His portrayal of cohousing is sort of correct and sort of wrong... Have you heard of him? The consensus in the Cohousing-L discussion is that someone needs to talk to him and set him straight - particularly on the aspect of cohousing communities being self determinant - not an investment opportunity in building something to which people are later recruited. Otherwise many of us feel the use of the term cohousing is deceptive. How is GCC doing? I see your directory entry has not been updated since 2016 and has no website listed. I have been a big advocate of Retrofit Cohousing. Hope you are doing well. Fred -- Fred H.
