For Homeowner Associations
Run your HOA without the property manager markup.
Self-managed HOAs collect dues, track violations, and record board minutes without outsourcing to a property manager who charges 3% plus a per-door fee. Made for boards that want their budget back.
No credit card required. Set up in minutes.
Sound familiar?
The property manager skims 3% off every dues check
Your HOA pays a management company six figures a year to collect dues, process a few violations, and send a quarterly statement. Half of what they do could be a form and a Stripe account.
Violations live in the board president's email
A homeowner sends a photo of the fence dispute. It goes to the president's Gmail. Three months later the fine is contested and nobody can find the original complaint.
Homeowners can't see their own dues status
To find out whether they've paid, homeowners email the treasurer and wait two days. The treasurer spends Saturdays answering dues-balance questions.
How TidyHQ fixes it.
Direct dues collection, no property manager markup
Homeowners pay dues via Stripe. TidyHQ charges 1% + 20c per transaction plus Stripe fees — no percentage skim on top. On a 240-home HOA with $400 annual dues, the savings alone cover TidyHQ several times over.
Violation tracking with an audit trail
Every violation has a timestamped record, attached photos, board decisions, and fine status. When something gets contested, the history is right there.
Homeowner self-serve portal
Homeowners log in to see their dues balance, submit architectural review requests, pay fines, and read board meeting minutes. Your treasurer's inbox gets 80% quieter.
Board meetings with minutes and decisions attached
Agenda items, minutes, votes, and action items live in one record. New board members inherit the full history instead of six years of Gmail threads.
Questions people ask.
Can a self-managed HOA collect dues without a property manager?+
Yes. TidyHQ handles HOA dues collection directly via Stripe. You set up dues amounts, billing cycles, and late fees once; homeowners receive automated invoices and pay online. No property management company needed for the collections workflow.
Does TidyHQ track CC&R violations and fines?+
Yes. Every violation creates a record with attached photos, a timeline of board actions, fine status, and homeowner responses. The audit trail is essential when violations get contested or escalated. Board members can assign action items directly from the violation record.
Can homeowners see their own dues balance?+
Yes. Each homeowner has a self-serve portal where they log in to see dues status, payment history, submit architectural review requests, pay fines, and read board meeting minutes. This eliminates the treasurer's weekend "am I paid up?" emails.
Does TidyHQ work for HOAs with hundreds of homes?+
Yes. TidyHQ scales from a 20-home condo association to a 500-home planned community. Reserve fund category tracking, architectural review workflows, and multi-board committee structures are all included in Pro.
What about reserve fund reports and board financial reporting?+
TidyHQ's Finances module categorizes income and expenses by reserve study line item. You generate board financial packets and reserve fund reports from real-time data instead of waiting for the property manager's quarterly statement.
How much does TidyHQ cost for an HOA?+
Pro is $49/month for the HOA, regardless of home count. Transaction fees are 1% + 20c plus Stripe fees — no percentage markup on dues collection. Compare to property management fees at 3-10% of dues, the math favors TidyHQ even for mid-size HOAs.
