Q: How do I form a sole member nonprofit tenant association

Yes, I do. I need help with the formation process and filing for federal grants

1 Lawyer Answer

A: For a condo? For HUD housing? For some other purpose? It matters to be specific, but the specifics are not necessarily appropriate in a venue like this that is open to the public.

"Sole Member" non-profits are tricky, and trying to form one without the guidance and help of a local attorney is risky at best. Frankly, it may be better to work with a few neighbors and have MORE than one member. Again, this is something to discuss with your attorney.

Seek local legal help so you can share those specifics and get on the right track.
