Does anyone have a checklist for transition from one Management Company to the next with an associated timeline?

Thanks

this is taken from the Davis-stirling.com, a really great site..

Whenever the services of a management company have been terminated, boards should make a written demand that all association property and records be transferred to the new company. This includes, but is not limited to, the following:

Governing Documents
1. Articles of Incorporation
2. Bylaws
3. CC&Rs
4. Condominium Plan
5. Rules & Regulations

Membership List
Current names, addresses, phone numbers

Minutes
1. Board meetings
2. Committee meetings
3. Membership meetings

Financial Records
1. Budget
2. Reserve studies
3. General ledger
4. Bank statements & check register
5. Bank signature cards
6. Delinquency list and liens
7. Paid invoices and accounts payable
8. Monthly financial statements
9. Year-end financial statement (audit)
10. Tax returns

Personnel Records
1. Employment contracts
2. Payroll documents

Insurance Files
1. All policies, past and present
2. Any open claims

Vendor Records
1. List of all vendors, addresses, & phone numbers
2. All contracts, past and present
3. All warranties

Architectural Records
1. Building plans
2. Landscaping plans
3. 0wner architectural records

Litigation Files
1. Legal correspondence
2. Litigation records, past and present

Website
1. Domain name
2. pdf files
3. Html and asp pages

Keys
1. Common areas

3. Bulletin boards

Miscellaneous

hope this helps

Extremely important to make sure that the change of registered agent takes place. The new company should do this as a matter of course (changing the corporate agent with the state), but demand a copy. I've literally seen hundreds of associations lose their corporate standing and protections because the old managerment company was listed a the registered agent, and just trashed the renewal paperwork from the state.
