The current association manager of Aix La Chapelle has been working with the association- boots on the ground, since 2017. Having a tenured and experienced HOA manager that has been onsite throughout every type of scenario, brings numerous advantages to the association and its members. Advantages include but are not limited to- utilizing an in-depth, hands on knowledge of our aging infrastructure, collaborating with multiple boards, and the relationships that have been built with residents , and local authorities. The long standing relationships that have been built with vendors leads us to cost savings and high-quality, reliable services for the community. Tenured managers keep detailed records of maintenance and repair activities, which aids in planning for future maintenance needs and provides a reference for warranty claims.
Experience adds to the understanding of the unique needs of our association, having seen firsthand where the association has been with its variety of past challenges, and thereby understanding the areas of focus and targeted long-term strategic planning for the future, ensuring sustainability for our association.
Association management requires continuous learning and professional development. Regular training and education keeps the management team updated on industry best practices, legal requirements, and emerging trends thereby, enabling them to perform management duties more effectively.
