HOAResidents.com vs ManageHOA

HOAResidents.com gives volunteer HOA boards a public website, resident portal and operating tools for self-managed communities. Residents request access to a property, and boards approve or reject those requests. Communication features include a shared board inbox, professional HOA email, announcements, BOLO alerts, a message board, events and surveys. Documents can be marked Public, Residents or Board-only; Pro adds AI document questions with cited answers from governing documents. The web platform is free through January 1, 2027 for communities that sign up. The Free plan otherwise provides a public profile and basic landing page, while public documents and resident tools require Core or a qualifying founding signup. Core and Pro are listed at $20 a month per 100 homes, with Pro adding maintenance, reservations, violations, architectural requests, custom forms and expanded AI. Stripe Connect can route reservation payments to the HOA while HOAResidents keeps $0.

ManageHOA is a cloud-based platform for HOA boards and property management companies serving townhome and single-family communities. It covers violations, architectural requests, maintenance and community communication, and management companies can oversee multiple communities from one dashboard. Homeowners can submit architectural applications with images and documents; managers and committee members can review, discuss and vote on them. Violation records can include notices, resident responses, attachments and timestamps, with automated follow-up reminders. Resident and board portals, a mobile application, work orders, board documents and a membership directory are listed alongside announcements, inquiries, notifications and calendars. Other capabilities include visitor and contractor management, staff operations, package tracking, weather alerts and emergency broadcasts. Residents can pay dues through BuildingLink Payments, and the platform is designed to integrate with accounting software. It runs on Android, iOS and the web. Pricing is on request; the product page directs prospective customers to request a demo rather than listing plan tiers or prices.
