Herding Cats

One of the advantages of being in a TIC is that applying several perspectives to an issue or problem usually results in a more thoughtful and creative solution.

One of the disadvantages of being in a TIC is that trying to mobilize everyone in a group of equal partners to proceed quickly and effectively toward any particular goal (agreeing on a roofing contractor, deciding on a refinance) can be somwhat difficult.

On balance, I would say the first outweighs the second. Especially since even if it takes some time and effort to get everyone on the same page, I'm not paying for that new roof all by myself.
