A cooperative community (or co-op) is a business organization owned and operated by a group of individuals for their mutual benefit.
Living in a co-op comes with many perks, including financial, social, and physical benefits. When you buy into a co-op, you are not only a co-owner of the property but you also have access to a wide range of services and amenities.
There are several differences between a co-op and a continuing care retirement community, but the main difference is the way that they’re structured. While a co-op community is co-owned by its residents, a continuing care retirement community (or CCRC) is owned by a corporation.
In other words, at a CCRC, you’re buying the guarantee of future services, not the home or apartment itself. At a co-op, you’re also guaranteed future services but you are considered a part-owner, which means you can still get homeowner tax benefits.
Both offer typical retirement community amenities like dining, maintenance, and access to events and activities, but a co-op is more focused on independent senior living while a CCRC is more focused on supportive services like skilled nursing. We invite you to come to Sugar Hill to experience it all for yourself.
And because community members sit on the board at a co-op, you can be confident that resident priorities are always at the heart of any board decision. You’re a co-owner of the community so you get a say in how it’s run.
In addition to top quality apartments and cottages, buying into a co-op opens the door to a whole host of financial benefits. Those benefits include:
