Model Code of Ethics for Homeowners Association Board Members
Board members should:
• Strive at all times to serve the best interests of the association as a whole regardless of their personal interests.
• Use sound judgment to make the best possible business decisions for the association, taking into consideration all available information, circumstances and resources.
• Act within the boundaries of their authority as defined by law and the governing documents of the association.
• Provide opportunities for residents to comment on decisions facing the association.
• Perform their duties without bias for or against any individual or group of owners or non-owner residents.
• Disclose personal or professional relationships with any company or individual who has or is seeking to have a business relationship with the association.
• Conduct open, fair, and well-publicized elections.
• Always speak with one voice, supporting all duly-adopted board decisions—even if the board member was in the minority regarding actions that may not have obtained unanimous consent.
Board members should not:
• Reveal confidential information provided by contractors or share information with those bidding for association contracts unless specifically authorized by the board.
• Make unauthorized promises to a contractor or bidder.
• Advocate or support any action or activity that violates a law or regulatory requirement.
• Use their positions or decision-making authority for personal gain or to seek advantage over another owner or non-owner resident.
• Spend unauthorized association funds for their own personal use or benefit.
• Accept any gifts—directly or indirectly—from owners, residents, contractors or suppliers.
• Misrepresent known facts in any issue involving association business.
• Divulge personal information about any association owner, resident, or employee that was obtained in the performance of board duties.
• Make personal attacks on colleagues, staff, or residents.
• Harass, threaten, or attempt through any means to control or instill fear in any board member, owner, resident, employee, or contractor.
• Reveal to any owner, resident, or other third party the discussions, decisions, and comments made at any meeting of the board properly closed or held in executive session. | ||

It is the fate of the Property Manager to toil at the lower employments of life; to be rather driven by the fear of evil than attracted by the prospect of good; to be exposed to censure without hope of praise; to be disgraced by miscarriage or punished by neglect, where success would have been without applause and diligence without reward. While others may aspire to praise, the Property Manager can only hope to escape reproach, and even this negative recompense has yet been granted to very few.
| HOA Board Members may request log-in information to our Members Only area, which is packed with lots of very unseful information cannot be found anywhere else on the web |
As Property Managers, we all have learned primarily
through our mistakes and pursuits of false assumptions
rather than by our exposure to fountains of wisdom and
knowledge.
