This question can be best answered by seeking professional assistance from the association's attorney or tax counselor.

If the association's bank accounts are kept in the name of the association with signatory power given to the management company, your professional guide can help you protect the association's ability to use its funds to pay its bills in the scenario you describe.


Removing the management company from the association's accounts may be required.


If the association's funds are co-mingled with the management company's funds in the same account, your professional guide can work with the IRS, the association and the bank to determine how to separate these funds out, so that the association can pay its bills.


Your governing documents provide a guide that the board can follow to determine how the association's accounts are to be established and protected from the implications of co-mingled funds, even your own.


(An association's operating and reserve accounts are generally required to be separate accounts.)


Finally, the laws in your state may also require guidelines for associations and their managing agents insofar as association funds are concerned.

How do you remove condominium property management company?

Condominium associations are governed by: (1) State Law, (2) the documents creating the condominium, usually the Declaration of Condominium, and (3) the Bylaws of the Condominium Association.Often, a condominium association will hire a property management company to manage the day-to-day operations such as collecting assessments, paying routine bills, handling calls from unit owners, etc. The property management company will usually enter into a contract that outlines the duties and obligations of each party. That contract should contain terms including the length of the contract and methods of ending the contract early.As with any contract, there are other remedies based in contract law. For example, if the management company is not living up to their obligations in the contract, they may have "materially breached" the contract in a way that would allow the the association to terminate the contract due to that breach.Usually, a property management company will agree to terminate a contract where the arrangement is not working out. Of course, it is the association, not the property owners, who makes the decision to enter into a contract or what steps should be taken in the course of business.The Bylaws of the Association usually outline the structure of the governing body. This is usually a Board of Directors with several officers. The number of board members and how they are elected will be established by the bylaws. Often, the board will elect or appoint officers of the association such as a President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer.It will usually be up to the Board to make decisions regarding the hiring and firing of a property management. However, it is not unusual for a board to delegate such powers to the President of the Association.

Can a property management company hold on to a domain name of an HOA?

Your answer depends on who owns the domain name. If the association paid for the name and is registered as the name owner, the management company has no right to keep it out of use by the association. If, however, the name was paid for by the management company and it is listed as the name's owner, the association may need to negotiate for the transfer of the name into the association's ownership. It should be valueless to the management company once the association has discontinued this relationship. Association counsel may become involved in this issue, should the management company attempt to hold the domain name hostage or offer it only ransom.

Can a person on a condo board own the property management company?

This could have potential conflict of interest written all over it, couldn't it? On a legal standpoint, it may not be expressly forbidden for a board member to own the property management company - that's highly dependent on the specific bylaws of the condominium association and the laws within your jurisdiction. However, given the potential for a perceived or actual conflict of interest, it's generally advisable not to have such arrangements. It may be interpreted as the board member potentially benefiting unfairly from the association fees paid by other unit owners. To maintain trust and transparency, board members and property management companies should typically maintain independent interests. This is a principle we at Daisy keep at the forefront of our service, ensuring that our relationship with our board members is centered solely on providing excellent property management service, and nothing else.
