Are Monthly Maintenance Fees Too High In South Florida Condo Towers?

In Episode 90, expert Peter Zalewski of Condo Vultures interviews David Cohen, an executive vice president with AKAM On-Site based in Dania Beach, Fla., about the property management industry in South Florida where condominium and homeowners associations dominate residential living in the tricounty region of Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach.          In Segment 1, Cohen discusses growing up in Boca Raton, attending high school and university in Northeast Miami-Dade County and helping AKAM to grow its portfolio of units under management in South Florida since the organization expanded to the tricounty region from New York City in 2000.  In Segment 2, Cohen provides an overview of South Florida's property management industry, the services offered by property management companies and the strategies that condo and homeowners associations adopt to maximize property management services for residents. Cohen also discusses the challenges - and solutions - created by the COVID-19 pandemic for residents and employees living and working in communities managed by third-party companies.      In Segment 3, Cohen talks about property management fees, the costs associated with running a community and the outlook for condo maintenance fees in the future given the added services and requirements required as a result of the pandemic.     To send a comment, please email the podcast at [email protected]     Please be sure to patronize our advertising supporters: Condo Vultures® Realty, Condo Vultures® Condo Correction Tours, and CVR Realty.  Click here to subscribe to the Condo Vultures® Distressed Market Intelligent Report.
