This Getting-It-Built workshop, open to anyone interested in cohousing development, will prepare Berkeley Moshav for the next phase of our community's development. We will obtain vital guidance on:
DEVELOPMENT issues:
  • Overview of the development process
  • Finding a site
  • Planning and designing a community
  • Working through city approvals
  • Hiring and managing construction professionals
FINANCIAL matters:
  • Financial realities (costs)
  • Investment structures (raising the money)
  • Financing options
  • Ownership structures
  • Keeping on track and on budget
The workshop will be led by Katie McCamant and Chuck Durrett, the nation’s foremost experts on cohousing. Katie and Chuck introduced cohousing to North America with their book, Creating Cohousing: Building Sustainable Communities, and have developed, designed, or consulted on more than fifty cohousing communities. This workshop shares best practices gleaned from their 25 years of experience, while paying attention to our community's unique location and situation. More North American cohousing communities have been started by the Getting-It-Built workshop than by any other method.

COST: $450 for the first adult from a household, $150 for the second. (Lunch and childcare are available for an additional fee. We will try to make recordings available to registrants who cannot attend the entire workshop.)
