There is no question that there is strength in numbers, but those numbers have to work in unison towards a common goal.  Over the years the industry that services the country's ever increasing number of mandatory membership common ownership developments has been organized, and at least on the surface, has been marching to the beat of the same drummer.  The homeowners on the other hand, who far outnumber the industry members, have been, for the most part content to just let things be.  But times they are a changing and the homeowners are starting to take a more active role in the whole concept. 

California, New Jersey and now Florida have all hosted conferences.  These conferences were set up by the homeowners for the homeowners.  Will these conferences become annual events?  Will other states follow suit?

You will hear some of the presentations and comments from the homeowners at the latest homeowner conference organized and hosted by Cyber Citizens for Justice. This clip was recorded on Friday evening at the opening session in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
