About CMAOA
Our Mission
We strive to educate and reach out to landlords in Central Maine in order to provide our communities with safe and affordable housing.
EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE
We want to make sure that every landlord has the best chance to succeed. We will strive to be a provider of education and tools to make that possible.
Areas Served
Our membership area extends from the north of Newport and Pittsfield; east to Unity, Palermo, Windsor; south to Hallowell, Richmond, Bowdoinham; and west to Belgrade, Winthrop, and Monmouth. CMAOA and CAHA members have homes and rental units in most communities within this large area and many of our large holdings landlords own rentals throughout the State of Maine!
The reality is that although we are community centric, so much of what we do is helpful to the entire state: For example, we’ve spearheaded legislation that has changed outdated laws, as well as created and hosted valuable educational events.
