Canadian Condominium Institute
Golden Horseshoe Chapter

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to introduce ourselves. The purpose of our organization is to educate and provide assistance to directors, property managers, real estate agents, insurance brokers, developers, tradesmen and many other professionals involved with condominiums. To contact us simply click on the link on the left called "Contact Us". We're very sorry but we cannot offer advice on specific condominium legal issues. We are happy to answer questions regarding the Act and how it maybe applicable to your situation. In some cases your contact information will be required before we can help you. CCI members receive priority service so be sure to state if you are a member.

The Golden Horseshoe Chapter publishes many articles (see the articles button) in their entirety a few months after they appear in the Condo News. The hope is you will appreciate the information and become members to support us. Please become a member if you find the information of benefit, so we can continue to provide education and assistance to condominiums and professionals in Ontario.
