CH&P Management Owner Achieves Top Industry Credential from Community Association Institute

CONROE, TX -- Savannah Crihfield, owner of CH&P Management, recently joined the elite group of community association managers who have earned the Professional Community Association Manager (PCAM®) credential from Community Associations Institute (CAI). Crihfield is one of more than 3,600 managers worldwide who have earned the highest level of professional recognition in the community association field.

CAI is an international organization dedicated to building better communities. More than 75.5 million Americans live in an estimated 365,000 association-governed communities.

Established on September 10, 2013, by Savannah Crihfield, CMCA, AMS, PCAM, CH&P Management LLC specializes in comprehensive community association management services for single-family homeowners and property owner associations throughout southeast Texas, with a focus on Montgomery County and surrounding areas.

“Our focus is simple,” said Crihfield. “We help community associations thrive by providing experienced, reliable management that allows board members to focus on their community's vision while we oversee the details.”

To earn the PCAM credential, managers must have five years of community association management experience and complete more than 100 hours of course work. In addition, credentialed PCAMs must fulfill continuing education and service requirements, as well as adhere to a code of ethics.

“Professionals who earn CAI credentials maximize the value they can provide to their community association clients,” said CAI Chief Executive Officer Thomas M. Skiba, CAE. “Not only have these professionals demonstrated a personal commitment to self-improvement, but they have also elevated their practical knowledge and expertise. That’s what all community associations need, and what board members and residents deserve.

Professional managers provide administrative, operational, and managerial counsel to community association boards. Managers typically are responsible for managing budgets and contractors, directing association personnel, and overseeing compliance with association covenants and restrictions.

“We care for communities as if it were their own by building lasting relationships through trust as we manage community associations with integrity, care, education, and inclusive activities to create a culture within the homeowners. Customer Service to the community members is the priority,” said Crihfield.
