What Shared Services

Make Possible

Community ownership is powerful — but running real estate cooperatives and community investment funds is complex. By sharing resources and expertise, we lower barriers. reduce duplication, and give organizations more time and capacity to focus on their mission.

​

MC-CORE's shared services help members operate more efficiently, comply with regulations, and plan for the future-so we can grow the community ownership movement, together.
