What is the difference between an Onsite Association Manager and Portfolio Association Manager?

An Onsite Association Manager is placed on a particular property, overseeing
management duties from within the community itself under the direction and
management of Coastline Management and the community’s Board of Directors.
These managers typically only oversee one property at a time as they are there
to do daily inspections and duties. A Portfolio Association Manager works offsite
at the Coastline Management office while making up to three site visits per week.
This manager usually oversees multiple accounts on behalf of Coastline
Management. All Association Managers are responsible for the duties listed on
the management page.

What are CC&R’s?

The term CC&R refers to “Covenants, Conditions, & Restrictions”. A covenant is
a legal obligation imposed in a deed by the seller of the home and/or property
upon the buyer of the real estate to do or not to do something. Such restrictions
frequently “run with the land” and are enforceable on future buyers of the
property. CC&R’s deal with the requirements and limitations of what you can do with
your property. The goal is to protect, preserve, and enhance property values in
the community.
