> with land trusts and co-ops

The hardest part with this - as with many other similarly noble undertakings - is to find a person who's willing to do all the job of setting things up and then step aside.

As we empirically see, there are not many people like that, otherwise this country would be full of land trusts.

Many of the land trusts form because the tenants get so pissed at their landlord that they make their landlord's life miserable, until the landlord gives up and sells the building to them for a land trust. Peace is a lie.
Does the landlord sell the property at market price?
