community association management technical

"FirstService Residential will provide full-service community association management"

Community association management is the professional administration of common-interest residential communities—such as homeowners associations and condominium associations—including budgeting, collecting fees, enforcing rules, arranging maintenance, and handling vendor contracts and records. It matters to investors because these services affect the operating costs, reserve funding, governance, and property values of managed communities, much like a building’s superintendent affects the upkeep and finances of an apartment complex.

developer turnover technical

"from the early stages to developer turnover"

The rate at which a company's software engineers and other technical staff leave and are replaced over a period of time. Investors care because high developer turnover can slow product development, increase hiring and training costs, create knowledge gaps or security risks, and make future forecasts less reliable—similar to a sports team constantly changing players, which can disrupt performance and teamwork.

DENVER, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- FirstService Residential, North America's leading property management company, has been selected to provide management services for Reverie at Looking Glass, a new single-family home community in Parker, Colorado. This milestone marks the company's official expansion into the Colorado market.

Developed by Dream Finders Homes, Reverie at Looking Glass is an age-targeted, active lifestyle community featuring 450 single-family homes at full buildout. The community is currently under construction, with initial home sales anticipated this summer and first closings expected later this year.

"We are excited to bring the Reverie brand to Colorado and to continue growing our collaboration with FirstService Residential," said David Smith, vice president of active adult at Dream Finders Homes. "They understand what it takes to support a community from the ground up, and their experience with our Reverie communities in Florida has made them a natural fit. As we expand into new markets, it's important for us to work with partners who can scale with us and help create a consistent experience for homeowners."

Located about 25 miles south of Denver, Reverie at Looking Glass is designed to offer vibrant, resort-style living with amenities focused on social connection and wellness. Plans for the community include a clubhouse, fitness center, pool and spa, along with a variety of events and activities designed to bring residents together. While not age-restricted, the community is thoughtfully designed with the needs and preferences of active adult homeowners in mind.

FirstService Residential will provide full-service community association management, including financial management, governance support, and day-to-day operations. The company will also hire a full-time, on-site general manager to support the community from the early stages to developer turnover.

The selection builds on FirstService Residential's existing relationship with Dream Finders Homes, including multiple Reverie communities currently under management in Florida. As Dream Finders Homes expands its footprint nationwide, FirstService Residential continues to support their vision with scalable expertise and local market insight.

"We are proud to partner with Dream Finders Homes on this exciting new community and to support their growth beyond the Southeast," said Amy Bazinet, senior vice president, FirstService Residential. "Expanding into Colorado is an important step for us, and Reverie at Looking Glass gives us the opportunity to bring our experience in new development and lifestyle communities to a growing market. We are committed to supporting the Dream Finders Home team and future board from day one, helping create a strong foundation for long-term success."

Construction is underway, with full community buildout anticipated over the next several years. Reverie at Looking Glass reflects a growing trend toward flexible, lifestyle-focused communities that appeal to a broad range of homeowners while still delivering the design, programming, and sense of connection often associated with active adult living.
