Consulting services

The Cottage Company communities are viewed as models of national importance for innovative land use projects and innovative ‘infill development’ - smart growth without sacrifice. We are available to consult with city planners, developers, non-profits, homeowner associations, and other groups who want to learn more about how to bring about new housing choices in their communities.

Linda Pruitt, president of the Cottage Company, is also available to speak to groups and learning institutions on topics including:

Creating Community, One Neighborhood at a Time. Site planning that facilitates community interaction while also focusing on homeowner privacy.
Creative Single-family Infill. Integrating small communities into larger neighborhoods in an urban environment.
Global Issues, Local Change. It's not just about "green" building anymore. The Cottage Company is a leader in planning for a growing housing market while conserving dwindling resources and being a steward for the earth.
