← Back to Why Convert

Cash Free
conversion model.

No out-of-pocket costs. No upfront fees. No financial risk during the conversion process. You pay only when — and if — your unit successfully converts.

No Upfront Costs

Zero fees or expenses required from shareholders before conversion is complete.

No Payment Until Closing

Hutton receives payment only after successful conversion of each unit.

No Obligation During Process

The co-op corporation and shareholders bear no financial burden during conversion.

How It Works

The mechanics of Cash Free

Fee Structure

Per-unit fee paid only at successful conversion. The fee is based on unit size and represents only a fraction of the equity gain you'll realize from the conversion.

Cost Integration

Conversion fees and closing costs are wrapped into your new combined loan — your proportionate share of the underlying mortgage plus your existing share loan. No separate payment required.

Ongoing Costs

Condominium fees fund building maintenance and operations. Generally, there's little to no difference in operating expenses between a co-op and condo, except for real estate taxes (which become individual rather than collective).

Key Difference

Real Estate Taxes: Co-op vs. Condo

Cooperative

Taxes paid by the co-op corporation from assessments collected from shareholders. Indirect and collective.

Condominium

Each owner receives an individual tax bill. Direct ownership, individual accountability. The association pays no real estate taxes.

Maintenance of common elements, insurance, and reserve funding remain identical between ownership structures.

In 30+ years, no shareholder has ever paid out-of-pocket upfront costs for a Hutton conversion.
