Independent oversight for your board.
Surprise assessments, reserve shortfalls, a management company no one's checking — boards carry real responsibility, often without independent expertise in the room. After 31 years running my own managed-services firm, I'm that experienced set of eyes, working only for you.
Your board carries the liability. You shouldn't carry it blind.
Volunteer boards make six- and seven-figure decisions on budgets, reserves, contracts, and technology — often advised only by the very vendors they're paying. I give you an independent read, so you can question, verify, and decide with confidence.
Four ways I bring clarity and accountability.
Read your books and reserves with you
I translate the P&L, balance sheet, and reserve study into plain English, so the board sees the real financial picture — and knows the right questions to ask before voting.
An honest check on your property manager
A second opinion on your management company's performance, billing, and contracts. Are you getting what you pay for? I help you hold them accountable — without the conflict of being one of them.
Evaluate the tech and the contracts
From 31 years inside the vendor world, I help your board assess IT, software, and service contracts, spot overspending, and understand the cyber and compliance basics in language that makes sense.
A steady voice through transitions
Developer turnover, a management-company switch, a new deadline — I'm the calm, independent presence in the room while the board works through big, unfamiliar decisions.
New rules. Big numbers. I help you make sense of them.
Florida's post-Surfside laws have put condo and HOA boards under real financial and compliance pressure. I don't perform the inspection or the reserve study — I help your board understand what they mean, question the costs, and plan calmly instead of reacting.
- Structural Integrity Reserve Studies (SIRS)Mandatory reserve funding you can no longer vote to waive. I help you read it and plan for it.
- Milestone inspectionsDeadlines that carry real penalties. I help your board track obligations and make sense of vendor quotes.
- HB 1203 governance rulesNew website, records-access, and conflict-of-interest requirements. I help you understand what compliance looks like.
Simple, predictable, flat-fee.
You don't need to know what you need before you call. Most boards reach out with a stack of financials, a reserve study nobody can read, or a management company they can't evaluate. That's enough to start.
A conversation
Thirty minutes, no charge, no pressure. Tell me who you are, which association you serve on, and what's worrying the board. If I'm not the right person, I'll say so on that call.
A clear scope
I tell you exactly what I'll review and what the board will receive — in writing, before we begin. You send financials, reserve studies, or contracts only after we've spoken.
Ongoing advisory
A flat monthly fee, regular advisory calls, and written summaries the board can act on. No hourly meter.
Paying for internet, phone, and circuits nobody has reviewed in years? Associations run phones, gates, cameras, and clubhouse internet on contracts that quietly renew. I tear the bills down line by line at no charge.
