TIP 4: LEARN TO
DELEGATE.
Board members are never alone in their efforts
to improve and maintain their community.
Delegating responsibilities, like maintenance or
accounting, can help a community thrive. First
work with your board to determine what services
can be outsourced, and then find trusted partners
to ensure things are handled in a timely and
professional manner.
Remember to always to use your business
judgment and vet each partner carefully. Ask
for references and referrals when possible—
it's essential to confirm contractors have the
experience and resources to back up their
promises to your community.
Community partners that boards will need to
select may include:
• Attorney
• Audit accountant
• Community manager
• Engineer
• Accountant
• Insurance provider
• Landscaper
• Maintenance team
