Community Association Management
HIRING A PROFESSIONAL MANAGER
Now more than ever there is a trend for homeowner's to leave their stand-alone homes and relocate to a new home within a gated community, PUD or condominium complex. The ease and piece of mind of handing off many of the homeowner's chores is very enticing. In each of these situations, however, there is the ongoing need for a Board of Directors for a Homeowner's Association to manage the services provided to the individual homes. So, how does the Board decide how or who will manage the affairs of the association?
The managment of Homeowners Associations requires specialized knowledge and resources. The Association Manager must be trained and have the experience necessary to provide advice, direction and resources to the governing Board of Directors on a wide variety of specialized topics.
We at Kiemle & Hagood Company are pleased to provide you with information regarding management of Homeowner Associations. As with any homeowner, you take pride in your home and your surroundings. This is evident by your desire to have professional management involved with your HOA.
Our core values are to:
- Provide the best service possible
- Anticipate rather than react
- Be flexible in order to meet the clients needs
- Be accurate in our financial reporting
- Make the board look good to homeowners
By hiring a professional management company, you take the headaches out of managing problems such as broken gates, pool maintenance, middle of the night breakdowns, hiring of any on-site personnel (and vacation coverage for them), governmental filings with state and federal agencies, and all of the other challenges an active HOA faces on a daily basis. Further, you assure yourself that you are meeting all fiduciary obligations to your fellow homeowners. And when disputes arise (and they will), it is an outside party that mediates the problems, thereby avoiding direct conflict with your neighbors.
You will have professional help in creating accurate and well founded budgets, as well as managing reserve funds for future repairs. You will have a professional providing communications to all of the homeowners, keeping them informed of the activities in the project. And finally, you will receive monthly operating statements and narratives discussing the financial and management activity for the month and year-to-date.
All of this support by a professional manager will allow the Board to focus on the big picture, and know that they have the information to make well-founded decisions about their project.
Congratulations on your decision to explore professional management. Kiemle & Hagood Company looks forward to preparing a customized proposal to you based upon the unique needs of your project.
