Towards the end of the year, the association seeks support with rental issues from Wohnstadt, a non-profit housing developer that also offers advice and management services

Revised general rental agreement as of March, cooperative capital on the part of the association based on the 21 apartments plus common room amounts to CHF 471,500, which is around CHF 50-60,000 below the amount initially assumed, as the apartment portfolio has changed

Wohnstadt takes over the management of the association's apartments and supports the drafting of the individual rental contracts for the association members

Intensive planning for the move-in, as the construction progresses, numerous smaller construction and organizational issues are dealt with

Because the apartments have limited storage space, one member of the association designed a solution that was implemented by a regional carpentry firm, and several association members used this option

All apartments are occupied
