ABOUT US

    Eclipse Community Management serves as a trusted partner to our community associations, providing oversight of all day‐to‐day operations. This includes collecting assessments, paying vendors, coordinating maintenance, and similar tasks. Eclipse was founded on the premise that communities deserve responsive, efficient service provided by experienced community association managers.

    Our mission is clear..

    Today more than 65 million Americans are residing in 330,000 homeowner associations and planned communities across our nation. Most associations share a few essential goals, such as:

    • Preserving the nature and character of the community
    • Providing services and amenities to residents
    • Protecting and enhancing property values

    Eclipse brings the professional support necessary to help community associations achieve these goals.

    Hands

    We are guided by four core principles

    We see our community Board members as partners rather than clients. At Eclipse, we exclusively represent each of our community association partners. We do not provide in-house ancillary services like landscaping, snow removal, or maintenance so that we can properly oversee these activities. We also do not accept solicitation or in-kind gifts from potential or current vendors.

    We believe that management and Board members can operate most effectively when they have access to relevant, timely data. We provide comprehensive information on the status of the community financials, accounts payable and receivable, delinquencies, pending maintenance, and compliance issues in real time through our community portal as well as through monthly reporting.

    When your residents contact the management company they want to speak with someone who is knowledgeable about their community and can solve their problem. Our staff is local and understands the community as well as regional resources. No national call centers or complicated phone menus are necessary to receive help!

    We focus exclusively on the management of homeowner and condominium associations! Our staff members hold a variety of credentials from CAMI-CB©, the leading association management credentialing body. Unlike the usual “jack-of-all-trade” companies that manage rentals, apartments, and commercial properties, our attention is solely devoted to communities like yours.

    Teamwork that Eclipses the competition

    Our team works to provide exceptional service and redundancy to our partner communities. Each association we manage is supported by an Association Manager as well as a team of staff members that have a common goal, but unique areas of focus. Our team-based approach means that our managers are engaged with their communities and burnout and turnover are limited.

    Association Managers are experienced professionals with a solid core of experience and knowledge in the management of community associations. Each Association Manager is supported by a Senior Association Manager as well as our Director of Operations and Managing Partner. Our support and customer service staff bring decades of experience in meeting homeowner needs and responding to concerns. In each interaction, they strive to meet the need and take care of the homeowner on the first interaction.

    Professional credentialing

    Our Association Managers hold various credentials through the Community Associations Institute (CAI) and the Community Association Managers International Certification Board (CAMI-CB), the professional credentialing program for the association management industry. These credentials include the following:

    • Certified Manager of Community Associations (CMCA) – As the only accredited certification program in the world for managers of homeowner and condominium associations, the CMCA credential. CMCA credential provides an assurance to community association homeowners and volunteer boards that the manager has the basic knowledge necessary to effectively manage a community association. CMCAs have passed a rigorous exam, demonstrating they have a proven and solid understanding of the many diverse business operations involved in being a community association manager.
    • Association Management Specialist (AMS) – The Association Management Specialist (AMS) designation is awarded to managers that demonstrate they have the training and knowledge required to provide professional service to their community association clients. It says they understand the nature, importance and unique challenges of community association management. In addition to the CMCA requirements, AMS designees have at least two years verified experience in financial, administrative and facilities management. They must successfully complete at least two advanced courses offered by Community Associations Institute and must redesignate every three years by meeting continuing education requirements.
    • Professional Community Association Manager (PCAM) – The PCAM designation denotes the height of knowledge and expertise for community managers worldwide, the designation signifies the highest level of individual accomplishment in the community association management profession. Candidates must have five years of verified, direct community association management experience; successfully complete requirements for CMCA and AMS designation; successfully complete advanced courses in Facilities Management, Association Communications, Community Leadership, Community Governance, Risk Management, and Financial Management. PCAM candidates must also successfully completed a comprehensive case study examination of an actual community association, with classroom instruction and an extensive on-site inspection.
    • Accredited Association Management Company (AAMC) – The Accredited Association Management Company (AAMC) credential is a seminal corporate achievement, but it’s more than a singular accomplishment. It’s a mindset, an attitude and an ongoing commitment that inspires superior performance and company-wide professionalism. It symbolizes a corporate culture that is based on knowledge, expertise, customer service and integrity. To earn the designation, a company must have provided association management services for at least three years and have a senior leader that holds the Professional Community Association Manager (PCAM) designation.
