mutual housing  

Definition

  • The term mutual housing is used by many types of nonprofit housing organizations, and it can have a variety of different definitions. It is a type of social housing, meaning that it is owned and managed for the benefit of residents and the community in which it is located, rather than as a type of investment for the private for-profit housing sector.
