CCI-T Welcomes New Committee Members

Dene Cousins

I have managed condominium corporations, high rise and townhouse properties, for over 25 years. I started with the turnover of a problematic building when my husband, a CPM Emeritus, asked me to help with – just for a few weeks.

Together, we formed a company, hired accounting staff and recruited candidates to be property managers for about 25 corporations over the next few years.

Since then, I have worked for the big three management companies and am currently with FirstService Residential.

I think the main problem for managers is knowing who to turn to for advice, when a thorny situation arises. This is where CCI becomes so valuable. You can look for articles in the magazine – and probably find a similar situation and how it was resolved. You can find a fellow manager, or lawyer, or accountant, or engineer to consult.

Sometimes it’s fun, sometimes totally frustrating – but never boring.

I started with Malvern Condominium Property Management in 2011 when I entered the Condominium Management field after leaving the fire protection field.

I’ve obtained experience managing all types of Condos including high rises, town houses, common element, and commercial.

In early 2022 I became a principal owner and Vice President of Malvern Condominium Property Management. I joined CCI-T to help connect and engage with other condominium professionals. It is a great tool for continuing education on many varied condominium topics.

I decided to volunteer to help provide my experience in the industry and I am currently a member of the CCI-T Marketing Committee. I feel it is important to try and reach as many directors, property managers, and other condominium professionals to help CCI-T grow as an organization and make it the leading area to find the education and support needed as a part of the condominium community.
