Is your HOA failing to give you what you need out of community living?
Utah is home to thousands of homeowners associations, each one conducting affairs uniquely. Some communities bring peace and simplicity to their residents' lives. Others create stress and frustration.
If your HOA is in the latter category, it's time to think about HOA property managers. These services are available to help associations operate more professionally, which benefits everyone.
In today's post, we'll explain some of the expertise that homeowners association management brings to the table. Keep reading and get HOA expert advice that improves your community.
Financial Management
Often, the area where poorly run homeowners associations struggle the most is with financial management. A community's funds are made up of individual HOA fee payments by homeowners. These monies are collected to pay for literally everything an HOA does, from lawn cutting to building new amenities.
If you don't have an experienced accountant managing the community's funds, it may not go far enough to cover these expenses. The only thing a community can do then is hike the HOA fees, which will undoubtedly alienate homeowners.
HOA management has qualified accountants on staff to handle money. They'll collect the fees, balance books, and create sensible budgets that are easy to stick to. The result is far greater financial health in the short and long term.
HOA Governance
HOAs are always governed by a set of legal documents, called "governing documents". These outline the rules and regulations of the community that all homeowners must follow, or face serious consequences.
If your HOA leaders struggle to keep bad actors in line, you'll have chaos in the community. Sometimes you need a third party who can enforce the rules in a consistent and straightforward way. Our South Jordan property management services can be that third party.
We'll ensure all homeowners are compliant with the rules, or face things like fines, liens, and even foreclosure. The result will be a more cohesive and happy community.
Vendor Coordination
HOA maintenance is the key to community safety and happiness. When you have a well-maintained HOA, you'll also bring in greater interest from outside property investors. Over time, this will help boost property values and create generational wealth for HOA inhabitants.
To have a well-maintained community, you need good relationships with local vendors. An HOA manager will bring established relationships with various vendors - landscaping, garbage removal, road repair, etc. - who will be easily called upon as needed.
