Cooperatives, LLCs, and Other Shared Ownership. Some people who can’t afford to buy real estate individually are interested in purchasing it collaboratively with others to whom they are not related. It is important to create a model where all the co-purchasers are equitably protected, but developing a legal structure can be complicated. This webinar will look at resident-owned cooperatives, LLCs as a tool for collective ownership or gradual transfer of property, and the experience of collaboratively purchasing real estate without a specific legal structure in place.
