Switching HOA Management Companies is Easier Than You Think
No disruption to homeowners. Same backend systems. Lower costs. Professional transition management. Learn why dozens of Northern Indiana HOAs have made the switch to 1hoa.
Why HOAs Are Making the Switch
Overpaying for Service
Traditional property management companies charge $15-25+ per unit monthly for basic HOA services that 1hoa provides for $8-12.
Poor Communication
Slow response times, hard-to-reach account managers, and lack of transparency in operations and financial reporting.
Reactive Approach
Waiting for problems to occur instead of preventing them through proactive maintenance and planning.
