What Is Property Management?

Property management consists of three major categories: Administrative Management, Financial Management, and Property Maintenance.  Campbell works in conjunction with your board to help the board make its goals for the community a reality.  These goals may be as simple as making sure that the common areas are well landscaped and maintained or may be as complex as a concrete restoration project to ensure the long life and appearance of a condominium.  The needs of the association vary greatly from community to community, which is why Campbell offers a custom level of service for each association to provide the best fit.

Living In a Managed Community

The board of a managed community has the responsibility to maintain a certain standard (as set forth in your associations governing documents) in several key areas listed below.  Keep in mind that each association's governing documents are different and some aspects of association living may not apply to your particular community.

Common Area Maintenance

An association must maintain the appearance and functionality of any areas considered to be "common" which can include everything from an entrance sign or landscaped median, to clubhouses, community pools, parking decks, etc.. 

Architectural Review

Many communities have an architectural review process to ensure that only approved enhancements may be made to individuals units or properties to ensure that the overall appearance of the neighborhood is maintained.  By maintaining high standards of work and aesthetics the board is able to preserve both the character and property values of their respective neighborhoods.  If you are considering making any architectural changes to your home/unit please consult your governing documents and/or property manager before doing so to make sure you are in compliance with your association's rules and regulations.

Deed Restrictions

Deed restrictions are codes of conduct for a Homeowners or Condominium association that may govern  several different aspects of community life.  Common deed restrictions include limits on size, number or breed of pets; minimums/maximums on leases or renting; Age (i.e. Over 55); and property appearance (i.e. Fences, Mailboxes, Landscaping).  If you are looking to purchase a home in an association community be sure to consult your Realtor about the different restrictions that exist in that community before you buy.
