To become a member of Cambridge New Hope Co-op an applicant must submit a fully completed application form. Completed application forms can be submitted in person or by email. Visit our Contact Us page for office hours.
Once you have given the co-op your completed application form the co-op will:
Perform a credit and background check.
Interview all applicants applying for membership.
Recommend applicants approved for membership to the Board of Directors for approval.
If you are approved for membership the co-op will:
Inform you of the Board’s decision.
Put you on the waiting list.
Call you when a unit is available.
If the Board has approved you as a member and a unit is available, the co-op will invite you to:
Look at a unit.
Make a deposit to hold the unit.
Set a date for move-in.
You will pay your security deposit before move in. Once this is complete, you will pay the membership fee, set up your utility contracts and sign your occupancy agreement.
Fees may include:
Security deposit.
First month housing charge.
One time membership fee.
Members don’t often move out of Cambridge New Hope so it may take some time to get into the co-op. Typically approved applicants are offered a unit on a first come, first served basis unless there are extenuating circumstances.
