Cohousing-L Mailing List: Common House Insurance Policy

Island Cohousing has a 3,000 sq. ft. common house owned by a homeowner's 
association and zoned as a private residence.  We're looking for an 
insurance policy to cover the replacement costs.  A local insurance company 
informed us that the common house would require a commercial insurance 
policy because it's owned by a homeowner's association rather than a 
residential homeowner's policy - at three times the cost.  Any experience 
out there insuring common houses?
