You’ve probably never read your building’s property management contract all the way through. Most board members haven’t either. If you did, you’d find a carefully defined scope of work — vendors coordinated, maintenance dispatched, assessments collected, reports generated.
What you wouldn’t find: anything about fiduciary duties. Reserve funding strategy. Compliance tracking. Case documentation. Institutional memory. The legal obligations that make your board personally accountable to unit owners.
That’s not an oversight in the contract. It’s the contract. Property management was never designed to cover governance. And yet most boards — paying $10,000 to $18,000 a year for the service — assume it does.
Operations and governance are different jobs. One has a contract. The other has a fiduciary duty.
What your building is paying — and what it’s getting.
What the contract covers. What it doesn’t.
The markup problem most boards don’t know about.
Beyond the management fee, most property management companies mark up vendor invoices — the plumber, the landscaper, the elevator contractor — by 10 to 15 percent before passing the bill to the association. It’s legal. It’s common. And boards have almost no visibility into it. (more…)

Right now, condo boards across DC are sitting on a fiscal problem they can’t see yet — not because anyone did anything wrong, but because three separate pressures have been building quietly for years, and a softening economy is about to make them visible all at once.
Reserve funds. Most DC condo associations are underfunded relative to their actual capital replacement schedule. The numbers in the spreadsheet look passable — until the roof needs replacing, the elevator fails, or the boiler goes. Then the gap between what you have and what you need becomes a special assessment. In a market where owners are watching every dollar, a surprise $4,000–$8,000 hit isn’t just painful. It’s a board credibility crisis.
Vendor and maintenance costs. Labor is more expensive than it was three years ago. Materials are up. Insurance premiums have jumped significantly across DC. Boards that set their annual budget in 2022 and haven’t stress-tested it against current vendor quotes are likely running a quiet deficit — spending down reserves without realizing it, because the line items look familiar even though the real costs have shifted underneath them.

Whitman-Walker staff had a great time proudly walking in the World Pride Parade. We boldly branded ourselves with an upside-down pink triangle—a symbol with a powerful and complex legacy in LGBTQ+ history. Originally used during the Holocaust to identify and persecute LGBTQ+ individuals, the symbol was reclaimed in the 1970s as an emblem of resistance and pride. Today, it serves as a reminder that our liberation is rooted in the courage of those who came before us—and in our ongoing fight for justice, equity, and love.
It has been a challenging year for Whitman-Walker due to the substantial loss of grants and funding that directly affect our health research, policy, and healthcare initiatives. We’re therefore grateful to our friends at Maydan, Medina, and The Stratus Firm, who are helping us close out Pride month in style!
We invite everyone to join us at the Pride & Pulse Block Party – taking place on Saturday, June 28th in the alley by Maydan, between Florida Ave and 13th St. NW. At the intersection of celebration and care, the party will bring our community together in a vibrant, inclusive day-long street festival honoring the legacy of World Pride.
This event pulses with energy – from live music and culinary delights to art and activism – all in support of Whitman-Walker’s vital mission to provide accessible, inclusive healthcare to LGBTQ+ individuals. Join us as we amplify the heartbeat of our community through connection, joy, and purpose.
