Since 1992

The work has been conversion from the beginning.

The firm began with one conversion in New Jersey and has since worked across the country.

1992
Foundation
The Hutton Group, Inc. was formed as a New Jersey corporation to convert cooperatives to condominiums.
1992–1995
First Conversion
The firm's first conversion was also the first modern-day conversion of a cooperative to a condominium in the greater New York area.
1995–1999
Expansion
Residential Ownership Alternative approached Hutton in 1999 to take over a New Jersey conversion, and brought its own Northern Virginia record with it.
2000–2007
National Scale
Hutton acquired ROA in 2000 and formed ROA Hutton, LLC, and the conversion work spread across the country.
2008–2011
The market question
Shareholders asked whether a weak market was the wrong moment, and the difference between co-op and condominium values had not narrowed.
2012–Present
Continued Focus
Conversion has remained the whole of the practice, and the All-in-Plan is one way a shareholder finances the conversion fee.

The Hutton difference

One firm carries a conversion from study to deeds.

A conversion asks for legal and financial work, shareholder education, administration and a closing, in the right order. We provide all of them for one fee for each unit, paid at closing.

Everything from one firm.

We provide all the professional services required to convert a property, from beginning to end, including shareholder education and the legal, financial and administrative work.

No add-on charges.

Services other conversion companies treat as add-on charges are inside our agreement, so extra effort does not add to what a shareholder owes.

When the fee is earned.

We charge no fee upfront, and the fee is earned when deeds are delivered. The costs and risks of the conversion sit with us.

We are the only national co-op-to-condo conversion specialist, with completed conversions nationwide. More than 5,000 cooperative units have been converted into condominium homes. The firm was founded in 1992, and every conversion the shareholders have approved has since been completed. We completed conversions through the 2009 to 2010 mortgage restructuring.
