Mike Nelson Shifting Focus To RentalHomePros

From the NARPM news page:

“Region I Vice President Mike Nelson has resigned his Board of Directors position so he can focus his full attention directing the new Rental Home Professionals, Inc.”

I contacted Mike and asked him about his shift within the NARPM organization and he wrote back:

“During the most recent NARPM board of directors meeting I pointed out that I could serve as a Director, or I could continue as the RHP committee chair, but I could not do both. I still have a company to run. The board decided they would prefer for me to remain as the committee chair for RHP for now and they would find a new Director for NARPM for 2008. As I explained in our phone conversation the other day, NARPM is the owner and only shareholder in RHP. While I expect I will serve as the first President of RHP and one of the 5 board members of RHP, this is an unpaid position just like the leadership positions within NARPM. One of our top priorities is to find and hire professional staff and management to run RHP (and I will not be one of these people). Once full time management is in place, the time obligation for the RHP board members should be significantly reduced.”
