The Latest


This week’s CIC Info Bytes is a brief retrospective on the first half of 2022.  We’ve published 24 weekly CIC Info Bytes and 7 original blog articles since January 1, 2022.  In addition to a boatload of content, we have continued to add structure, new features and graphics to both CIC Info Bytes and Condo Connection to help you linger longer and visit more often.  We hope you’ll enjoy the new email format applied going forward.


Just like Condo Connection, CIC Info Bytes is 100% volunteer based.  In order to remain a neutral, trustworthy source of information, Condo Connection does not accept monetary contributions for advertisements or product promotions.  We eschew most direct requests, but if you and your community have benefitted from the information you receive, please consider supporting Condo Connection.  We’ve published several resources that can add immediate value to your community.


In closing, please have a wonderful Independence Day weekend!

CIC Volunteer Feat of the Week


Paper records you say?  Volunteer Carolyn from the great state of Illinois has a solution for your community.  Over the course of several years, Carolyn scanned, indexed and de-duped all the paper records from four associations dating back to the 1970’s.  In addition, she created a spreadsheet-based ledger to capture decades of decisions.   What a feat!
