C.C.I. National

Currently C.C.I. National with local chapters in Ontario are actively involved with providing feed back on the proposed overdue implementation of the 'new' Condominium Act.

The C.C.I. is the only national association to serve as a clearing house and research center on condominium activities. It assists its members in establishing and operating successful condominium corporations through publications, workshops and technical assistance. C.C.I. provides objective research for practitioners and government agencies regarding all aspects of condominium operations. C.C.I. does not represent any one profession or interest group. Rather, it represents a process of creating a successful and viable condominium community.

The condominium community is growing at an astonishing rate, where now nearly a third of the home real estate market is condominium sales. It is in the best interest of both successful and struggling condominium corporations as well as industry professionals, to actively support the C.C.I., in its aim to improve the condominium image throughout Canada.

What Can The C.C.I. Do For You?
