Are you putting your most valuable assets in the hands of the most qualified professionals?

COMMUNITY ASSOCIATIONS CAN BENEFIT GREATLY BY HIRING A CMCA-CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL

As a board member, trustee, or volunteer leader working with your association or cooperative, you have fiduciary responsibilities that obligate you to make decisions that can have a profound financial and social impact on your community. Receiving professional and accurate advice and guidance on issues such as reserves, maintenance, insurance, budgets, governance, contracts, the law, and rules enforcement can mean the difference between prosperity and disaster.

Many field experts must earn degrees and pass tests to be certified. So why would a board risk hiring a professional not qualified to look after their homes and their community?

​MANAGEMENT COMPANIES SHOULD HIRE CMCA-CERTIFIED​ PROFESSIONALS TO DEMONSTRATE A COMMITMENT TO PROVIDING QUALITY SERVICES

In the growing and competitive community management field, clients demand skilled managers who deliver superior service. Community leaders are looking to hire companies that employ qualified professionals. Hiring only certified managers will instill confidence and demonstrate a commitment to providing your clients with quality professional services. In return, you’ll be better able to retain clients and build your business.
