I agree with CL, I live in a MKI building, corruption is the appropriate word. Not paying attention to rules, regulations, by-laws, very serious mishaps on their part. Of course, those board members who get what they want will certainly have a different opinion, but by enlarge STAY AWAY. Money spent, where did it go? Who's pocket? Be very careful, so the one who's happy received something.
Join the Conversation Comments (1)Just gave yourself away. MKI with CERTAIN members (yourself included), not even the majority, chose to circumvent By-Laws, ignore motions, refused to state minutes, complain about bullying that NEVER happened and as a MA went along with all of this. How good are they? Be careful.

I have served on the Board and not been on the Board for longer during MKI's management. I can say my experience has been that I am very impressed with their service both as a Board member and a shareholder with unit issues. I can heartily say that MKI puts Orsid to shame and several others with whom I have experience. I also agree that there is usually at least 1 squeaky wheel a with their own agenda on the Board and most often more than that. Good luck.

In our building we are stuck with a small, group of mean spirited shareholders who have managed to bully most qualified people from running for the board. That building is managed by MKI. No management company is perfect but they are competent. Thank god we voted in a new board of directors who more represent the building, especially glad rid of the most hateful member. MKI is not the problem its the bullies,who have nothing to do but endlessly reply to forums like this and make their numbers seem bigger than they are. I have a life so you wont hear from me again unlike my neighbors.
