Headquartered in Portland, Oregon Community Management Incorporated (CMI) is a family owned and operated business lead by the founder, Kaye Youngren. Youngren was awarded the prestigious Orchid Award by The Portland Business Journal. Youngren has been a leader within her own organization, helped shape and structure the Community Association Institute (CAI) which certifies professionals within the
HOA management industry, founded the Oregon / Washington Community Association Managers (OWCAM), and co-founded the Alliance of Community Association Managers, she is also an active member in some HOA boards and maintains a high level of involvement in industry organizations and events. Community Management Incorporated is dedicated to your community. Helping an HOA govern, and guide communities is our passion. Your Community - Our Commitment is more than just words to CMI's staff members. CMI has been a pioneer in meeting the ever-changing needs of community association management. From single-family homeowners' associations to townhouse developments to sophisticated high-rise buildings and everything in between - CMI is here to serve Your Community. To keep your community in top working order our service division takes a great deal of pride in the fact that each of our Associations is very well maintained. In 1993 the CAI Oregon Chapter initiated a Community Association of the Year Award for Oregon communities (planned unit developments, condominium and townhouses). The award is given to one association in each of four size categories. Physical plant maintenance was an important consideration in the judging of the awards. Annually, we submit applications for this award on behalf of several of our clients. We are very proud to be able to say that our clients have been selected for this coveted award in each of the last 10 years! Responding to the ever-changing needs of our clients has been the hallmark of CMI's growth. We then became a registered general contractor. In 2004, we expanded beyond maintenance and began offering other services, such as concierge coverage, to our clients. CMISD is a service division of Community Management, Inc., and we provide a wide scope of services to our properties ranging from changing a light bulb to major construction repairs. Uniformed, courteous technicians provide emergency response service 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Our mission is to provide timely, professional and cost-conscious services to our clients. So whether it is a concierge program, maintaining your swimming pool or spa, having your parking lot or gutters cleaned, or rebuilding a deck, CMISD is here to serve you. One of our Community Managers was the founding delegate who was instrumental in forming the Legislative Action Committee (LAC) for Oregon-CAI. This group works closely with the legislature on matters of significance to our homeowners associations and to those of us that work in this field. CMI is also active in the "working group" of professionals who have organized to participate in legislative issues in Oregon that relate to our industry. As part of our participation in both OWCAM and CAI, CMI proudly subscribes to their Codes of Ethics as a demonstration of our commitment to the highest standards of honesty and integrity. CMI invests heavily in the continuing education of its community managers. Our community managers attend accounting classes at Portland Community College. We have found this education to be very valuable in training our managers to analyze client's financial reports. Additionally, as part of our commitment to excellence, our Community Managers (as well as several of our staff members) attend local, regional and national seminars and classes sponsored by our trade organizations; this keeps us on the cutting edge of changes within our industry. Four of CMI's fifteen community managers have obtained CAI's highest designation Professional Community Association Manager (PCAM). Our remaining Community Managers are studying for their PCAM designations as well. In 2001 CMI was awarded the coveted CAI designation of Accredited Association Management Company (AAMC). CMI is one of the only management companies in the State of Oregon to be granted this designation. Please refer to the resumes of our Community Managers for other designations held by our staff. Our staff receives on-going training in the use of the latest software programs. Feel free to visit our company website at www.communitymgt.com or call us at 503-233-0300
