Annual Condo Conference and Expo: Oct. 22 in Burlington, Mass.

Burlington, MA Each year CAI-NE hosts the annual Condo Conference and Expo, dedicated solely to the unique needs of condominium board members and association managers. This year’s all day event with expanded education will include a number of informational seminars and panel discussions, as well as a sold out exhibit hall featuring a variety of industry businesses that work with and understand the management, financial and maintenance issues facing New England condominiums. Participating speakers and exhibitors will provide answers to questions challenging managers and their association boards and offer insight into what’s on the horizon for New England communities.

In addition to managers, each year the conference & expo brings together hundreds of volunteer board members from communities of all sizes. Set for Saturday, October 22 at the Burlington Marriott Hotel from 8:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. the conference will include breakfast, lunch and free parking.

Educational Programs and Forums Experienced industry practitioners will present programs addressing the most pressing issues facing condominium boards and managers, while panel forums will provide a more interactive exchange and debate of specific audience questions. Challenged with complex risk management questions and ill prepared to address complicated insurance claims; seeking understanding of changes in federal as well as state laws and legal debates that are transforming the landscape of association management, rules and regulations; associations more than ever before are looking for answers and direction in an industry fraught with pitfalls for the unwary. The ever popular legal panel with seasoned condominium attorneys will answer specific questions and explain what managers and associations should do in every day common and not so common situations.
