A recent study conducted sponsored by a major credit repair firm and conducted by Harris Poll asked specific questions related to what people understand about credit scoring, how they are arrived at, and the information that is taken into consideration to determine them.

The study revealed some surprising information.  Eventhough credit scores affect Americans in many important ways including the price they pay for credit and insurance many people are mis-informed about the entire process.  This is shocking as your credit score can not only affect your ability to get credit but also impact on your ability to obtain employment.

In my journeys through the community association world I go to a lot of conferences, seminars, board meetings and read hundreds of articles about how to best manage and govern a community association.  It has almost become a cliché that communication is the most important aspect in managing an association.  While I don’t disagree, I also believe that information and facts are just as important and it is a commodity that is sorely lacking. Plainly stated Solid Information Is Critical

In any business it is imperative that proper Accounts Receivable ledgers be maintained, and this is especially important for community associations.   It should be a simple task as every month, quarter, or year an amount is due and when its paid the ledger goes down to zero.  Not too much math involved here, and when a unit owner is paying on time it’s quite simple.  Yet, what happens when a unit goes delinquent, or when payments come in on an irregular basis and the ledger is not kept properly?  That I can answer in one word, and that would be “trouble.”
