Survivor's Kit

Introduction Kit for Newly Formed Associations...

We, at Meisner & Associates, have learned over our 30 years of experience in representing community associations, of all types, that it is important for the association to get off on the right foot once control of the association has been given to the purchasers-members from the developer.  That is why our booklet Condominium Operation-Getting Started and Staying on the Right Track has been so popular for so many years and why we authored a second edition.  Incident to our concern for fledgling condominium and community associations, we have developed a survival pack for new community associations which provides procedures and forms which we think are crucial to the successful operation of the association.  We also recognize the economic limitations that new associations typically have and are mindful of our ability to represent these associations in an efficient and expeditious fashion because of our 30 years plus experience.  We have therefore provided a kit of documents and services for a flat fee which we believe is economically viable for almost any community association whatever its size.

SURVIVOR’S KIT ?

  • Review of Management Contract prior to signing
  • Preparation of a Delinquent Assessment Collection Procedure
  • Preparation of a Bylaw Enforcement Procedure
  • Tips on preparing and taking minutes with sample Documents
  • Checklist of items to address for proper turnover from the developer/turnover process
  • Auditor referral
  • Opportunity for reduced rates in connection with other forms and procedures provided by our firm

For an initial flat fee of $2,500,* we will review and critique your management contract, prepare a delinquent assessment collection procedure with adequate forms to facilitate the collection of assessments for your association, prepare a bylaw enforcement procedure with adequate forms to facilitate the operation of your association, prepare a checklist of items which need to be reviewed in order to ensure that you have received the proper documents from the developer, and make recommendations concerning auditors necessary to provide financial statements to the association and its members.  This offer is provided to associations which have taken over control from their developer within the last two (2) years and have not had the benefit of our experience in assisting associations.

As further discussed in our booklet, Condominium Operation-Getting Started and Staying on the Right Track, we think that these services can assist associations to get on their feet in a relatively short period of time.  This opportunity, we believe, can help associations not to go down the wrong path, and to facilitate their operation for many years to come.  It also gives the association an opportunity to become exposed to other legal services which may be necessary depending upon the unique needs of the association.
