Associa
DIAMOND LEVEL WINNER
When we founded Associa 35 years ago, community association management was fairly new and the market pretty small. We believed that homeowners who chose to live in a community association did so with higher expectations than most, and we wanted our company to be a leader whose clients could depend upon us for integrity, reliability, and security.
At Associa, we recognize that the primary reason you hire a management company is to take care of your community. Be it the maintenance of the common areas, keeping the pool clean, or managing your vendors and the bills, you want someone to handle it professionally and with attention to detail. That’s what we do. In fact, from your local community manager to our corporate management team, we’ve all managed communities, and you’ll find that nobody has the expertise that we do when it comes to doing the job right. We’ve been there before, so you can relax knowing that we’ve got it covered; we know exactly what it takes to help your community succeed.
More than three decades later, both the industry and Associa have changed and grown dramatically, but we’ve never wavered in our passion for bringing the best and most innovative services to community associations everywhere. Indeed, our clients will attest that when it comes to exceptional community management, nobody does it better than Associa. We invite you to contact us and to learn more about the great company we’ve built.

Gulfstream Business Bank
PLATINUM LEVEL WINNER
In the banking industry, bigger doesn’t necessarily mean better resources, capabilities, and expertise. In fact, smaller community banks often yield sizable advantages. What they lack in physical branch numbers, these local, niche operators make up for in concentrated talent and a laser-like niche focus on serving select clientele.
Hence the stunning success of locally–owned and–operated Gulfstream Business Bank, founded in 1999 with the express purpose of serving southeastern Florida’s business and professional community. Now a $550 million enterprise, Gulfstream Business Bank is dedicated to providing business owners, affluent investors, professional practices, and property associations with relationship-based banking and investment services designed just for them.

We are specialists in what we do and are not involved in any other aspects of community association business other than collecting and providing cash stabilization programs. We are big enough to have the resources to get the job done but small enough to care about the details and be flexible. Our success is based on operational excellence and being responsive.
We believe that the good-paying owners in a community association should not have to pay for the maintenance fees that others are not paying, and they should not pay for the costs involved in recovering those fees.
