We celebrate our 80+ Managers on International Community Association Managers Day, June 13, 2024. We appreciate the hard work and efforts of our Portfolio Managers, Community Managers and Assistant Community Managers. You are all important to our success.
We would like to take this opportunity to recognize two of our stellar managers: Angelika Balik and Margie Nichols.
Angelika Balik holds dual roles as both a Community Manager and Portfolio Manager overseeing associations in Fairfax County and Prince William County Virginia.
A Manager must wear many hats, and Angelika certainly knows what it means to do that. After two years of relentless work, reviewing countless bids and meeting with many vendors, the HOA Board and everyone here were finally able to open doors to the newly renovated, stunning pool at Terrace Towne Homes of Gunston.
Brian Heisler, Assistant VP of Operations proudly puts the spotlight on Angelika for her due diligence and perseverance in managing the pool project for Terrace Towne Homes of Gunston. “We are beyond thrilled to be able to share in the success of this community.”
Margie Nichols has been with us for more than 11 years successfully managing a substantial association of the firm’s portfolio located in NW Washington, DC, and also taking on the task of completing annual Energy Benchmarking reporting for 15+ properties managed by us.
She has presided over and driven progress for major projects and renovations to the association’s property, facilities, amenities and staff. It is her focused attention to detail that has kept these projects on schedule and within specification and budget parameters. She accomplished all of these projects while maintaining constant and up-to-date communication with both residents and the Board of Directors.
Margie inherited more than $60,000 in delinquencies. She not only got that reduced to zero, but she has maintained minimal delinquencies ever since. This enables her association, it’s Board, and the residents the freedom and ability to participate in and enjoy a thriving and robust community.
Anita Amini, A Portfolio Manager, says, “Despite the successes she has accumulated, Margie remains energetic and proactive on behalf of her association and its needs and goals. She is an exemplary part of their community, and I am proud of the work she performs on behalf of us.”
Amini enjoys the wonderful combination of professionalism, personality, and proactiveness that Margie brings to work with her every day. “I consider her to be a guiding light of influence towards her peers, and in a larger sense, our shared industry of Community Management Professionals.”
Congratulations and thank you, Angelika and Margie!
