Can one of your residents become your condo or HOA's community association manager?
An HOAleader.com reader asks that seemingly simple question.
But, as we predicted, the answer wasn't as straightforward as you might think. Even if it were that simple, should one of your owners become your manager?
Click on the arrow below to hear a short clip in which two of HOAleader.com's experts—Marcella Doyle, general manager at Associa® Chicagoland, who manages four condo associations in a luxury complex in downtown Chicago, and Todd J. Skowronski, an associate at Makower Abbate Guerra Wegner Vollmer PLLC, whose firm advises nearly 2,000 association clients throughout Michigan—answer our first, “easy” question.
In part 2 below, Marcella and Todd talk about when you might be opening a pandora's box by hiring an owner to do work for your community. For instance, what if you're self-managed and have an owner who's a good bookkeeper? Why not hire that owner to do your books? Is the analysis the same if you're hiring an owner as your manager or your community's lawyer? Click to find out.
