More than 2,000 people filled the aisles of the Greater Fort Lauderdale/Broward County Convention Center to meet more than 340 exhibitors at the South Florida Cooperator’s Condo, HOA & Co-op Expo 

(fl-expo.com) on December 8th. Board members and managers spent the day meeting with vendors readily available to service their needs and also earned educational credits by attending the day’s free seminar sessions.

Many first timers and regulars attended the fourth annual show. This all-in-one-day event brought together South Florida's best property managers, board members, real estate professionals, shareholders, service providers, vendors and unit owners all under one roof.

Attendees met with vendors on the show floor, took in one or more seminar sessions, and also took full advantage of the free advice booths set up to answer every question imaginable.  Board member Dan Elmer, a first timer, said the resources offered were second to none. “I gathered a lot of useful information for our condo’s needs that we will be utilizing in the future,” said Elmer, a vice president at his Boca Raton condo. “Our main focus was on replacing our roof. And next year, we will have to replace our asphalt driveway,” he said, adding that he found vendors that will help the community stay current on its maintenance.

The South Florida Expo provides the necessary resources and learning tools board members and industry professionals need to stay ahead of the curve. The Expo gave everyone a chance to meet professionals in the community association field.
