Chapter 2 of Starting a CLT: Rationale

The CLT’s ability to serve individual interests and community interests that are often in conflict is a key to understanding the model’s proliferation and appeal. Benefits do not accrue only to a fortunate few at the expense of the larger community – nor vice versa. Such a “balanced property arrangement” allows the CLT to be used in many different settings, addressing a variety of needs. The most common reasons for starting and supporting a CLT are reviewed in the present chapter.
