Managing Principal, Common Ground Solutions LLC. A credentialed community association manager with more than twelve years managing associations in Florida, Maryland and Virginia.
Board members run for election knowing they take on a fiduciary duty. What they rarely get is the support to discharge it well. That is the work: guiding the association so the board can show it did its due diligence, asked the right questions, and decided on the record.
Common Ground Solutions was formed in March 2026 and serves associations across the Mid-Atlantic from Alexandria, Virginia.
Boards divide. Owners divide. The job is to find the position the whole board can stand behind, and then get it written down.
We read first
No recommendation before the declaration, the study and the minutes have been read end to end.
One clear answer
Boards get a single recommendation with the reasoning attached, not four options and a shrug.
Everything on the record
If it mattered enough to decide, it matters enough to document. We draft the motion.
