When managing associations we pride ourselves in our direct and hands-on approach. Each association is different and deserves special attention. No corporation will match the level of devotion that Top Notch extends to each association. We assist each Board member or homeowner inquiry with an actual person on the other end of the line. No answering service or frustrating set of menus. Anything you need will be taken care of as soon as humanly possible.

Accurate reports and full disclosure are the cornerstones of a good management company. We take these concepts to the next level with detailed record keeping and full access for board members and homeowners alike.
