We have to find out what the building is worth, then someone has to see how big of a loan we could get as a group (we'd need a tax structure). Once we find that out we can crowd source for the deposit and first months mortgage.--Andrew
It's within the realm of possibility, but would require Sudo Room to become a land owner and a state/federally recognized entity (like an LLC) with people on the board having good credit. Correct me if I'm wrong here.

+1!!!Minus - 'it's probably too big to be crowdfunded'
sent from eddan.comI am guessing there are already models for spaces owned by the groups that operate there, cooperatively maybe?I think it's probably too big to be crowdfunded, but does anyone know someone profusely wealthy able to take this on? or a group?Not sure if this is possible, but just throwing it out there since there seems to be a general consensus that the location is ideal, but the management is the opposite:Can sudoroom (or some conglomerate including sudoroom) buy George out? or convince someone/something friendly to sudoroom to buy him out?
I'm not necessarily advocating this, but this space in Atlanta is pretty nice, even though it's been bought by developers for the purpose of fostering an art community that already existed there, and they have a farm:

Walking away may not be easy to do as he tends to corner people when they are alone in the space.

The lease that Matt sent out a while ago clearly states that all requests and complaints must be in writing. So I would like to reiterate that if George approaches you just say, "please put that in writing so I can share it with the group, thanks" and walk away if you can.
