Blueprint for Success

1
Set your charges to meet your costs
First, take note of all your expenses. Then set your charges high enough to meet them.
2
Fill your units
An empty unit is money gone forever. Here’s how to lose less to vacancies.
3
Collect what you’re owed
Members have to pay on time so the co-op can pay its bills on time.
4
Refresh, renew, replace
As your buildings age, they wear out. They’ll last longer if you give them the care they need.
5
Save for the future

6
Insure your assets
Your property is the source of all your income. Keep it covered.
7
Enjoy your co-op
You deserve it.
