Cohousing brings people together to build real relationships, live more sustainably, and support each other in daily life.
UD+P helps turn that vision into a thriving community.
You Want a Better Way to Live
But creating a cohousing community is challenging.
Many groups run into:
A complex development process
Risk and financial uncertainty
Difficulty attracting and enrolling members
Decision fatigue and group coordination
A lack of guidance on where to begin
We Help Cohousing Communities Succeed
Drawing on more than 20 years of multi-family development experience, we engaged our first cohousing project in 2015 with the founders of PDX Commons. Since then, we have been immersed in the cohousing ecosystem, collaborating with key figures like Katie McCamant, Shelly Parks, and the national nonprofit— Coho US among others.
We understand the risks, the decisions, and the journey—because we have done it successfully and collaboratively many times. We focus on the project and budget so you can focus on establishing core values from which to grow, enrolling new members into your vision, and ultimately strengthening the community.
