					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;Community association staff members are part of residents&rsquo; lives. Not only are they vibrant members of the community, they also often have access
&nbsp;to units, mail, and personal information of people who live in the building. It&rsquo;s crucial, then, that the individuals hired by a community association be
&nbsp;reliable, trustworthy, and dependable, in addition to being adequately trained
&nbsp;to handle sensitive information and personal property.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;It takes more than a watch dog and a dead bolt lock to feel secure these days.
&nbsp;In a multi-housing setting, countless opportunities exist for hopeful crooks to
&nbsp;infiltrate and commit crimes. Often, properties are cased for days, weeks or
&nbsp;months before the crime is committed. How safe are you?&nbsp; ]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;It&rsquo;s not surprising that residents are more willing to invest in security for their
&nbsp;home sweet home than they might be for other expenditures. Even in today&rsquo;s difficult economy, providers say there&rsquo;s little disagreement about choosing the latest and the greatest system&mdash;live or alarmed&mdash;that associations can afford.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;In condominium communities, sometimes the most heinous crime a manager can
&nbsp;recall is a pair of drunken football fans upending pots of mums and &ldquo;watering&rdquo; the foliage. Serious crimes are indeed rare within residential communities but
&nbsp;it may have more to do with surrounding neighborhoods&mdash;as realtors say, &ldquo;location, location, location&rdquo;&mdash;than anything else. In addition, rightly or not, community residents may feel
&nbsp;shielded from criminal activity by the presence of property management.

					  <description><![CDATA[We have a owner in one of our condos that always has excessive noise. Last night around 3 a.m., the police were finally called. The owner and his
&nbsp;roommate have been told to keep the noise level down but to no avail. Fines
&nbsp;have also been levied. Any suggestions?

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;Like all towns in Vermont, Bennington is small. Lesser known than its peers,
&nbsp;Burlington and Brattleboro, Bennington is often called the &ldquo;gateway&rdquo; to Vermont &ndash; a position that appeals to some, but leaves others unconvinced.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;A proposal to ban federal lenders from purchasing mortgages in condos with
&nbsp;deed-based transfer fees has community association leaders worried the ruling
&nbsp;would lead to diminished operating budgets and severe disruption of the condo
&nbsp;market. The proposed rule, originating with the Federal Housing Finance Agency
&nbsp;(FHFA), would prohibit Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and Federal Home Loan Banks from
&nbsp;buying mortgages in community associations with deed-based, or private transfer
&nbsp;fees.
