CoHousing Solutions provides development consulting services to help you create your sustainable neighborhood. Our team pioneered the development of cohousing in North America, and we have helped create dozens of successful, award-winning communities. Our newest venture involves training passionate cohousing entrepreneurs through the year-long 500 Communities Program.Originally founded by Katie McCamant and Jim Leach as CoHousing Partners in 2006, CoHousing Solutions was born out of a decade-long collaboration between Wonderland Hill Development Company and McCamant & Durrett Architects. Katie is coauthor of the book that introduced cohousing to North America, Cohousing: A Contemporary Approach to Housing Ourselves (1988) as well their most recent edition Creating Cohousing: Building Sustainable Communities. Since the early 1990s, Katie McCamant has collaborated with many dozens of resident groups to build sustainable neighborhoods. Our firm understands how to structure relationships between resident groups (ultimately, the home buyers of a completed project), developers and professional service providers (those with or without cohousing experience) including financiers, builders, contractors, and government officials.​Using a collaborative development model that builds on the strengths of a professional development team, CoHousing Solutions works with resident groups during the earliest stages of community creation. We recognize that each project is unique, and the optimized processes and collaborative systems we have developed ensure that each project reaches a successful completion in a way that respects its particular people, relationships, and circumstances.
