Is Hacienda Cooperative a market rate cooperative? Or a limited-equity cooperative? I’m sorry about the huge delay.
Hi Dennis,
Is Hacienda currently looking for a person, and could you tell me what the rules and rent might be, please?
Best,
Shira
If you don’t hear from him soon, I would try calling.
Thanks Johanna. -Shira
Hi, please add Beecher Cooperative, Inc. Beecher Cooperative is a limited-equity cooperative in NW DC founded in 1979.

Hello is there a website for Beecher Co-Ops?
If you are pleased with your management company, please share their information.
Hi–the Broadmoor, 3601 CT Ave NW, built in 1920, is a coop. Is the Kennedy Warren a co-op? I think there are lots of old co-ops in the city. Glad you found the beautiful and livable Hampshire Gardens.
