Cohousing-L Mailing List: Eugene, Oregon

[Martin Henner (mhenner]

Report from Eugene Downtown Cohousing.  We have had our trials this  
year.
- - First our contractor went bankrupt - luckily before we had started  
construction or paid any money.
- - The delay in getting a new contractor, set our timetable back as  
some zoning exemptions then expired.  But we got them approved all  
over again.
- - Now our bank says they are out of money for the time being.  But  
we seem to have another that has money and likes cohousing.

BUT our new bank is demanding that we have 65% of our units pre-sold  
prior to funding the loan.

SO - if you know anyone interested in urban cohousing in Eugene,  
Oregon, send them our way.
