Step 1:<br />

Identify Your Needs<br />

If your board is dissatisfied with its current<br />

management company, we suggest speaking<br />

with the company’s senior management and<br />

ownership to give them an opportunity to<br />

correct the deficiencies. If they fail to<br />

take the necessary steps to address<br />

the problems, it may be time for a<br />

change.<br />

Consider how your existing company has<br />

not satisfied the day-to-day and unique<br />

needs and requirements of your building.<br />

Recognizing these shortfalls will help your<br />

board identify the service offerings and solutions<br />

required from your future management company.<br />

Start the Conversation:<br />

“Our board is essentially handling our day- to-day property<br />

operations because our current manager lacks the skill set,<br />

support and resources.”<br />

“Since COVID-19, our service has<br />

dropped off considerably and the lack of<br />

notifications and updates is concerning.”<br />

“The board appreciates being involved in<br />

making decisions, but it feels like we’re<br />

missing out on resources and financial<br />

savings.”<br />

“Over the last year our property manager<br />

has become much less proactive in<br />

communicating with our board and<br />

shareholders and our management<br />

company hasn’t addressed our concerns<br />

after we contacted senior management and<br />

ownership. Should we take the next step<br />

and start searching for a new management<br />

company?”<br />
