Affordable Cohousing Workshop

In these days of real financial challenges, real price realities have to be embraced and understood. Recently, we helped a developer in Martinez, California move a 20-unit development from $550,000 average cost per house to $270,000 average cost – to a price that folks can afford even in the high-priced San Francisco Bay Area. We have done a dozen projects with prices starting in the $100,000s. And projects like Muir Commons in Davis, California where 23 of the 26 units were first-time homebuyers. They could do so because the prices were kept down. Or in other cases they could do it because McCamant & Durrett Architects knew how to work with a non-profit to get it done.

“I’ve always wanted to live in cohousing, but I didn’t think I’d ever be able to afford it.” –resident at Petaluma Avenue Homes

Nobody has more experience creating cohousing communities. We'd like to give you an estimate of our fees, but need to know a little more about your project.
