HOW IT WORKS

A cooperative is a joint ownership in a housing development in which members own a share of the building, land, and common areas, the value of that share is based on the size of the home. Members pay a monthly fee based on their share, which is used to cover the operating cost. Cooperatives are operated by their members, with a member-elected Board of Directors and a manager on site.

MAINTENANCE-FREE LIVING

RE-SALE OF UNIT

Cooperatives over the years have proved to have great resale value. Many owners will live in cooperatives the rest of their lives. If you need to resell, you go to the manager of the building and advise of your intention to sell. The manager will contact those on the prioritized wait list to see who is still interested and coordinate with the resale. There is a non-negotiable transfer fee of $1,000. The member will resell for the original investment, plus the accrued equity each year; Cooperatives use the Limited Equity Formula, and will set a percentage, and has the option to change over time. Currently it is 2.5%

FRIENDSHIP AND SUPPORT

Enjoy great social connections, or be as private as you want. Imagine living close to your new best friends, where there is always something to do and someone to talk to.

Purchase Process

First step, when you have any interest in the cooperative you pay a $250 refundable fee to join the waitlist   

AMENITIES

Cooperatives have amenities that aren't available in condominiums or apartments. Enjoy the outdoor patio area, try a yard game, or grill out with your friends and sit around the firepit. You can take advantage of the fitness room, share a game of cards, or join other Members for a watch party in the Great Room. The Great Room is also available to reserve for family functions or parties. Golfers will enjoy the close proximity of Brown Deer Golf Course
