		<description><![CDATA[Do you have a “drive by” property manager working for your Community Association?

		<description><![CDATA[We are often asked if we have or own subsidiaries that will provide landscape, janitorial, pool, irrigation and tree trimming services to prospective clients. Though it sounds like a logical step to have all of those services under the same property management umbrella, I will explain why this may be unwise for an association to consider.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As things deteriorate in our economy, management companies are being squeezed like all other businesses. There is more competition from new, small and inexperienced firms, lower fee income, and in some cases, rising overhead and expenses. One way that some management companies will combat this operating dilemma is to add more and more properties onto the property manager. This will overload the manager to the point where nothing gets done well and all parties to this become unhappy. The employer, the manager and of course, the clients are all unhappy at the performance level of everyone involved.]]></description>
