Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: RESALE VALUE OF COHO UNITS

[Robert Heinich (robert]

"Michael Barrett" <mbarrett [at] toast.net> said
  All sales that I have heard of are through word of mouth,
  and/or publicity through groups which seem to embrace cohousing,
  i.e. "green" organizations, "family" groups, Unitarian-Universalist
  churches and fellowships, and perhaps curiously, health care providers.

Linda,

If I add to what Michael's comments.

In the past several years, all of Eno Commons resales have been word of 
mouth or through our web site.  (I do recommend that one posts an ad in the 
cohousing.org's Marketplace.)  This is a good thing as the community gets 
new neighbors who get it (want community) and more money remains in our 
departing neighbor's pocket.

I would also add Jewish organizations to Michael's list.
