Who is Lisa Dunn?
Lisa Dunn, SRES®, CSA®, CSREC, is a licensed Minnesota REALTOR® with The Change Agents Group at RE/MAX Results. She has served older adults in the Twin Cities since 2003.
She works for you, not for any cooperative community, and helps both buyers and sellers.
How this site began
Why did Lisa build SeniorCooperatives.com?
At her downsizing seminars, cooperative questions came up every time. Good answers online were hard to find, so she built them.
- 01
The seminars
Lisa led downsizing seminars for older adults across the Twin Cities.
- 02
The questions
Every time cooperatives came up, hands went up. What is a cooperative? What does it cost? Is my home equity enough?
- 03
The answer
Good answers were hard to find online. So she built a free, independent guide to Minnesota senior cooperatives.
How I help
Educational first, transactional second
I won’t push one answer. I’ll help you find yours.
- Sell your house
Price it well and time the sale to your move-in.
- Find the right cooperative
Compare share prices, fees, boards and waitlists.
- Keep the family in the loop
One calm plan everyone can see, siblings included.
