					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;Ah, summertime! It&#8217;s a great time for property managers to kick back and relax! Except for that
&nbsp;out-of-control grill fire on the deck of unit 31 that nearly jumped to adjacent
&nbsp;units. And that pesky 13-year-old who broke his finger during horseplay in the
&nbsp;community swimming pool.

					  <description><![CDATA[ In Today&#8217;s Harsh Economic Times, maintaining a healthy reserve fund is more important
 than ever. A community association&#8217;s reserve fund can be used to cover any number of emergency expenses from sudden
 repairs to legal costs. In addition, a reserve fund can be used for ongoing
 maintenance projects or for anticipated future repairs.

					  <description><![CDATA[When these decisions have to be made, boards must consider the best way to
&nbsp;include residents in their thought process. And when the board of trustees
&nbsp;comes to the conclusion that fees must be raised, hopefully they&rsquo;ll announce it in a manner that will create the least amount of angst and worry
&nbsp;for the dozens, if not hundreds, of families that will be affected.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;Bad economic news is pretty much inescapable these days. You can&rsquo;t turn on the TV without hearing about another round of layoffs or shaky consumer
&nbsp;confidence. The stock market is unstable, retirement funds are shedding value,
&nbsp;the housing market has slipped into reverse and uncertainty is hanging in the
&nbsp;air.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;Even in the best of economic times, preparing a condominium's annual budget is a
&nbsp;tiresome task, fraught with uncertainty, estimations and shifting numbers. Now,
&nbsp;factor in one of the most challenging economic downturns in a century with cash-strapped owners who may be "skipping" monthly condo fees &ndash; or even winding up in foreclosure &ndash; and you have a downright daunting task.
