Employee Spotlight

Meet Our People

Meet our Association Manager, Carol Slaven.

Born in East Liverpool, Ohio, Carol moved to multiple states before making North Carolina home in 1985. Carol joined York Properties in 1987 as an Apartment Manager. The apartments were eventually converted to condominiums and Carol transitioned to association management. She then connected with other colleagues in the area who worked in association management. Together they established the first chapter of the Community Association Institute of NC.

Carol has gained an array of experience over the years working for other companies and owning her own home healthcare business, but nothing compared to York. Carol kept in touch with her York colleagues over the years which helped prompt her return to the company in 2022.

Carol now resides in Virginia to be closer to her daughter, Catie, and her older brother. These days, Carol enjoys reading, swimming, and volunteering with Compact Canine Rescue. She adopted Oreo from Compact Canine Rescue, her “foster failure,” after he was left ill at a dog pound.

We are so grateful for Carol’s commitment and dedication to the team and company over the years.
