Negotiating a Lease for Your Coop - Developing New Cooperatives
Presented by Daniel Miller (NASCO Staff) & Emily Ng (UHAB)
Co-ops can live in a grey area between residential and commercial, between formal and flexible, and between the collective and the individual. This can be a powerful advantage if your coop wants to negotiate the nest lease for a property - but your model might be unfamiliar to a landlord. These resources are meant to help you learn how to lower your lease payments, win more autonomy for your coop, and set yourself up for growth in the future.
