White Hawk Member Benefits
Living at White Hawk offers tangible and intangible perks.
-
You have a say. As a full member of White Hawk you are part-owner of the whole community. Each household at White Hawk, has the right to participate in our consensus-based decision-making process. When, in prolonged decisions, the decision-making process reverts to voting, member households have one vote each.
-
You own your home. In exchange for paying the lot leasing fee (between $45k-$50k), the price of building your house, and monthly fees (around $300-$400, including property taxes for the individual household), you have the right to build a dwelling of your choosing and design (as long as it conforms to the community’s green standards and government building codes). Your household can use the lot surrounding your house the same way you would use your own plot of land anywhere else, as long as other members of the community do not object. Currently, members are leasing their shares of the White Hawk land from Seven Circles, LLC, but when our initial construction loan is repaid, the land will be transferred to the collective, White Hawk Corporation.
-
You are part-owner of our common property. As a member family (or household) you will own (once land ownership transfers to White Hawk Corp.) 1 of the 30 shares in White Hawk.
-
Living here is like living in a park with acres of land for projects. Want to start a market garden? Blaze some trails? Plant a berry patch? Set up an archery range? We’re land-rich, and we love to see and feel the energy of new projects.
-
You can bring your pets to White Hawk. We welcome pets and understand that they are part of your family! Contact us about our pet policy.
-
You can will your home to your descendants or sell it. White Hawk’s 99-year lease policy is much like owning your lot; you can will your home to your descendants, sell it, or rent it – provided that your descendants or the buyer of your home meets membership requirements, including approval by the community.
