The
membership certificate - A Form of Property Ownership in Doral
Doral Village is a "cooperative" which is a common
method of property ownership in resident owned mobile
home parks in Florida. A cooperative involves resident
members (membership certificate holders) owning a
membership certificate in the corporation.
Approximately 57% of the resident homeowners in Doral
own membership certificates. The balance of the residents are
"homeowner/tenants" who own their own home but do not own a
membership certificate and rent the lot from the
cooperative.
Membership certificate holders have a an ownership stake in the
cooperative, are entitled to vote on cooperative issues
and can hold office, if elected, in the cooperative
board of directors. Homeowner/tenants do not have an
ownership interest in the park, cannot vote on
cooperative issues, and cannot be elected to the
cooperative. Membership certificate holders pay a lower monthly fee than
homeowner/tenants.
