NUTS & BOLTS OF COOPERATIVE HOUSING CONFERENCE ANNOUNCED

The 2010 Nuts and Bolts of Cooperative Housing Conference will be held September 23, 2010 at the Casa Garden Center in Sacramento.  Registration is now open for this event.

Nuts and Bolts of Cooperative Housing is designed for affordable housing developers, community organizers, policy makers, funders and people interested in learning about innovative home ownership strategies for moderate and lower income households. Cooperative housing is a time-tested model for affordable home ownership that creates a host of positives for homeowners, developers, funders, and communities, including: affordability that passes from initial on to subsequent owners, protections against predatory lending, reduced monitoring costs, and increased community participation.

This full day seminar teaches how to develop home ownership for low and moderate income households with Limited Equity Housing Co-ops and Manufactured Home Co-ops. The training presents how to implement Cooperative Housing models to create permanent, affordable home ownership for low and moderate income households including dual and single-parent families with children, seniors, singles, and special-purpose and specific needs populations.
