New DC Limited-Equity Cooperatives Report
CNHED has a new report titled “Creating and Sustaining Limited Equity Cooperatives in the District of Columbia” with Kathryn Howell of VCU as one of the authors. The 2020 report discusses how LECs might be expanded in the District, knowing that “Limited Equity Cooperatives (LECs) provide a critical source of affordable homeownership, stable community networks, and political power in neighborhoods across the District of Columbia.” The report also refers to another interesting study titled “A Study of Limited-equity Cooperatives in the District of Columbia,” which examines 57 LECs and finds the overwhelming majority in stable or excellent shape.
