Common Interest Communities CIC

• 90 Percent of all new homes are built as planned
  communities -- condominiums cooperative townhouse
  and single family homeowner associations and 1
  out of 6 Existing homes1.
• It would follow that Veterans that obtain a home
  loan are going to find that their choice of home
  stock is going to be in one of these CICs.

Pathway to Community Management

• No trade group, or University has established a
  viable program to develop the skill needed to
  enter this job market.
• Since most current management companies are self
  employed, all trainings for new managers has to
  be post hiring and is very expensive and limited.

What needs to be done

• Establish a nonprofit to work with the various
  trade group and Universities to facilitate the
  training of veteran in the basic of community
  management and work with large and small existing
  management companies to hire our Veterans for a
  life- long career in this industry.
• A portal CommuntyManagerProject.org has been
  started to address this issue and act as resource
  for all involved.
