Two Commitments
​Committing to Phase 2 is really about making two commitments:

1. Becoming a member of Heartwood Cohousing. That's what our Prospective Member Checklist (PMC) is all about – giving you enough information about life at Heartwood for you to make a well-informed decision as to whether you're a good fit for Heartwood and Heartwood is a good fit for you. Completing the PMC takes time so you are encouraged to get started on it as soon as you've determined that you are seriously interested in joining Heartwood Cohousing. If you decide to begin completing the PMC, please send an email to [email protected] to let us know and we'll pair you with a Heartwood member who will be available to answer any questions you may have as you go through the process.
2. Becoming a Phase 2 Homebuyer (P2HB). Based on our most recent home cost estimates (see Phase 2 Homes) and your personal financial situation, you will need to determine whether you can afford to purchase a home in Phase 2 (as demonstrated by a Pre-Approval Letter or a Balance Letter) and make a commitment to do so. You are strongly encouraged to consult with a mortgage lender and get pre-qualified or pre-approved for your home mortgage. Please see the Mortgage Financing section at the bottom of the Vital Information for Phase 2 Homebuyers webpage. Because your $12K Phase 2 Homebuyers deposit will be nonrefundable and P2HB's dropping out during the development process adds development costs for all of the other P2HB's, it is crucial for you to make sure that buying a P2 home is financially viable for you before signing and submitting the Heartwood Phase 2 Homebuyers Agreement. (Note that there's a Home Purchase Contract Addendum, which will be completed and signed at about the time we are ready to break ground.)​

Phase 2 Homebuyer Benefits
Once you become a Phase 2 Homebuyer, you will have reserved your spot in Phase 2. Additionally, you'll be invited to provide planning and design input, which is a valuable development resource as it helps ensure that Phase 2 will be built in a way that best meets the needs of its future residents. You will also be invited to participate in:

• Phase 2 Homebuyers email chat group where lots of information is exchanged about Phase 2 development, life at Heartwood, and P2 Homebuyers
• monthly P2 Homebuyers Zoom gatherings where the latest development news is shared and we prepare for building our 14 new homes and move-in (including access to recordings of previous P2 Zoom gatherings)
• P2 Zoom Happy Hours where we have fun getting to know each other and current Heartwood community members
• onsite P2 Homebuyers gatherings giving you the opportunity to have fun getting to know Heartwood and its members and provide input into various aspects of the P2 planning and design​
