Program Description
Colorado's community associations have not escaped the often harsh repercussions of a sluggish economy. Development projects that seem to stop before they start, financial challenges for homeowners, and even fraud have cast a shadow on neighborhoods throughout the state.
This program tackles the key issues and challenges facing associations today, including:
- A round-up of the latest legislation and case law
- A guide to surviving (or, better yet, preventing) a lawsuit
- A review of risks and costs in association insurance
- An in-depth discussion about the consequences of stalled developments and opportunities for associations to minimize exposure
