CHOOSING A VENDOR FOR AN HOA - INCLUDING MANAGEMENT

Boy, is this a great subject. A question from a reader about how the process works to choose a manager or get the board to put contracts out to bid caused me to do some research and talk to some friends in the "biz" and I came across a GREAT blog article on the subject which can be found on the same site that hosts my blog, namely, communityassociations.net.

The article is written by a long time community associations (same as HOA) manager, Gayle Hasley, who actually wrote a software program on how to keep track of everything that needs keeping track of as a manager. The software is incredibly helpful to HOA managers and in fact, it is helpful to everyone who comeds into contact with, works with, provides services for the HOAs, and determines how to resolve legal issues for any HOAs or condos the manager manages. Why? Because it puts the historic information of all aspects of the HOA at the manager's fingertips.

This incredible community associations management software can be seen at http://www.campro.us.

The wonderful blog article on choosing association vendors can be viewed at http://www.communityassociations.net/CAM_blog/2009/02/choosing_a_vendor_.html.

The article sets out how to go about choosing vendors, what is important, and what is not, how the bidding process works, etc. It is a comprehensive article and I could not say anything on this subject that tops what is contained in the article.
