Condominium, Co-Op and HOA Boards: Practical Advice From the Folson Group to Saving Money and Increasing Property Values

Tina Larsson tells how to avoid common mistakes and learn from the experts

Tina Larsson of The Folson Group has written the first book of its kind, Living the High Life: How Smart Co-op and Condo Owners Protect Themselves and Their Investment, an authoritative yet entertaining guide on how to run a co-op or condo like a business — because it is. This provides boards with all the tools and knowledge, in one informative location, to help them run their building proactively to make it safer, more sustainable and more affordable, and operate more smoothly, efficiently, and cost-effective. This will, in turn, create a more valuable property, all while enhancing the quality of life for residents.

Living the High Life: How Smart Co-op and Condo Owners Protect Themselves and Their Investment provides an antidote to the indecision and frustration so familiar to co-op and condo owners and board members. Inside, readers will find: 

  • A way to address safety risks, including understanding key building systems and inspections;
  • Cost-cutting methods, including simple energy- and water-saving measures;
  • Strategies for planning upgrades to meet carbon emissions standards set forth by New York City and others; and
  • Communication and meeting strategies to increase owner satisfaction and a sense of community.

"A wonderfully written guide full of turnkey solutions for those co-op and condo owners and board members who want to make substantive improvements to their building's operating efficiencies, budget, and green footprint, but don't know where to start. The Folson team has been there and done it, and now they share their secrets on how you too can be your building's hero."
