Switching managing agents sounds straightforward — until it isn't. In this episode Meredith Wettach, manager at WilkinGuttenplan, unpacks the financial surprises that quietly derail co-op and condo buildings during management transitions. Wettach has seen it all: missing records, dormant accounts nobody knew existed, and six-figure expenses that slipped through the cracks for years before anyone noticed. She walks boards through the specific documents, accounts, and vendor relationships that demand immediate attention when a new agent takes over — and explains why even well-intentioned, hardworking boards so often miss them. Habitat's Carol Ott conducts the interview.
