The HDFC workshops are: 

9:00 AM: ASK UHAB: PREPARING FOR YOUR HDFC CO-OP’S NEXT 50 YEARS

In the next five to fifteen years, your HDFCs will likely need to think about capital repairs, complying with local laws, and property taxes (with the 2029 expiration of the DAMP tax cap). In this interactive workshop, UHAB will address considerations for the next 50 years of a successful HDFC. We’ll talk about weathering generational shifts in the co-op leadership, planning for capital upgrades, and how to stabilize your HDFCs financials.

11:15 AM: ASK UHAB: THE IMPORTANCE OF HAVING A WILL FOR HDFC SHAREHOLDERS: And You Can Do It Yourself! 

A common and preventable problem occurs whenever a shareholder dies without a will. The financial and emotional drain on the cooperative and the family of the deceased is enormous. It can lead to years of court proceedings. In this class, UHAB staff will show participants how to create a binding will without a lawyer. They will provide resources, review online applications and discuss what a will must contain to be legally binding. 

3:00 PM: ASK UHAB: ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE FOR YOUR HDFC

As an HDFC shareholder, you can make a difference to tackle climate change in NYC.  Hear from UHAB’s Climate and Resiliency Team how your co-op may take advantage of and access programs to comply with energy codes, upgrade your heating system, futureproof your building, and save energy to keep your housing safe, healthy, and affordable.
