Covenant Enforcement Made Easy

To keep your community’s property values high, your covenants must be enforced.  But how do you do it?  Residents can be stubborn and offer creative excuses to exempt themselves from the rules.  Are there valid defenses? What can actions can you take to ensure compliance, if any?   Did previous Boards enforce the rules?  In this entertaining class, Neal McCulloh will take you through the steps to make this facet of your operations more effective.  After all, if you snooze on enforcement – you lose!

The June 2018 Official State Approved Board Certification Class

Did you know that the Florida Legislature passed legislation a few years ago requiring every Board Member to take this class?  If you went off the Board for even a day, you must re-take the class.  Or execute an Affidavit stating that you have read, understand your Documents, the ramifications of non-compliance, and agree to enforce your Documents?  Make sure you attend this year’s Certification Class to get the scoop on what is expected of you as a Board Member.

Now What?  The 2018 Mini-Legal  Update

Every year, new laws are passed by the Legislate.  New case law affects our communities.  How is a Board Member or Manager able to keep up on the changes that transpire?  Sit back and let Attorney Brian Hess update you on what is happening and what may be down the pike. 

This class covers the changes in the law that directly affects community associations.  It is not the 2 hour Legal Update for Managers (which is a required class for Managers that includes peripheral laws.   If your management company would like us to provide that course to your managers, please call our Public Relations Department for more information.

Selecting and Working More Effectively with Managers 

Does your community need a new manager?  Do you know what you should be asking for?  Looking for?  And when you find one, how can you work more effectively with your Manager to ensure a productive, professional, cordial relationship. 

This class will give you the tools to accomplish these goals.  Our Director of Public Relations, Arlene Ring, will be speaking on selecting a manager and a Community Association Manager (who is not servicing the area in which he is speaking) will cover how to work more effectively with your manager.

This class is a must for every professionally managed association or for those associations seeking to hire professional management.  To encourage an open dialog, this class is open to Board Members only.  Managers should encourage their Boards to attend this beneficial class.  Some Associations do not truly understand the manager’s role and this course will help your Boards and make life easier for both the Board and the Manager.

This course is not offered for credit.
