CACM’S FIRST EVER PODCAST IS HERE WE ARE LIVE!

In the fall of 2024, we took an exciting leap into the world of podcasting! Our first podcast, CACMCHAT: The HOA Life, is growing rapidly, with over 1,500 downloads and 21 episodes—and counting!

This bi-weekly podcast is designed for anyone involved or interested in community associations. We dive into real-life stories, industry trends and best practices from professionals working in California’s community association management sector. No topic is off-limits!

Some of our most popular episodes explore key topics like reducing burnout, reserve management tips, mental health and more. Our host and CEO, Tom Freeley, shares that the podcast’s main goal is to elevate the industry and shed light on “the reality behind community association management and what a manager actually goes through on a day-to-day basis.”

Episodes also tackle evolving HOA laws, emerging technologies and the changing workforce. Plus, expert guests join us to provide insights and guidance on these pressing topics.

One enthusiastic listener shared:

“They’ve already had some incredible guests, and I’m eager to see what’s next. If you manage an HOA, you must subscribe. Heck, if you LIVE in an HOA, subscribe! Better yet, if you’re curious about what’s happening behind the scenes in California communities, I highly recommend this podcast.” maintaining high standards
