Navigating the Financial Landscape of Condominium Corporations: A Guide to Success

Condominium Corporations are not-for-profit organizations formed to manage and govern condominium properties. They are managed by the property management company (in Ontario, these are to be licensed by CMRAO) and governed by a Board of Directors.

  • Holding an Annual General Meeting (AGM)
  • Filing annual returns with CAO
  • Preparing and approving financial statements
  • Filing annual T2 returns with CRA

include:

  • Maintaining the required types of condominium insurance
  • Updating the reserve study plan
