PDXC is a senior cohousing project in Portland or. We have had 8 units
turnover since we moved in 7 years ago. We keep a healthy Wait Pool and make
efforts to engage them in common meals or community events.
Of our 8 sales, 7 have been to existing members or members of our Wait Pool.
That demonstrates that we are doing something correct. The basis of our
Resale Agreement is that every owner has agreed to provide the HOA a 40 day
Right of First Offer. The HOA can then turn around and offer that Right to
existing members and to members of the Wait Pool. The Right of First Offer
is in our deeds. It has not proved to be any problem for any bank financing.


Here is a link to our Resale House Agreement which lays out the basic
policy:
