Your condo or co-op may be your biggest investment—but is poor board governance quietly reducing its value?

In this episode of The Agent of Wealth Podcast, co-host John Williams is joined by Tina Larsson, Co-Founder of The Folson Group, New York's premier co-op and condo consulting firm. After uncovering $340,000 in unnecessary expenses in her own building, Tina left a successful Wall Street career to help co-op and condo boards improve governance, strengthen financial oversight, and protect property values. Together, they discuss how effective leadership, proactive planning, and informed decision-making can make a significant difference for property owners and prospective buyers alike.

In this episode, you will learn:

How board governance directly impacts property values, monthly fees, and long-term building health.
What buyers should look for beyond financial statements before purchasing a condo or co-op.
Why serving on your building's board may be one of the best ways to protect your largest investment.
Practical strategies boards can use to improve operations, reduce unnecessary costs, and plan proactively for the future.
And more!

Tune in for an insightful conversation on how stronger governance can help preserve property values, improve communities, and avoid costly mistakes before they happen.
