According to Phoenix Agent Magazine, homeowners associations (HOAs) have become so popular in Arizona that almost a third of homes belong to one. It also noted that properties in these communities are, on average, worth around 4% more than those not in HOAs.
Still, an HOA can quickly become riddled with problems without the help of a professional community association management company.
To that end, our team at PMI PHX SW put together this guide exploring full-service association management in Phoenix, AZ. Read on to learn how these experts can help enhance community well-being and living experiences.
Help With the BOD's Workload
Most community association management duties fall on the Board of Directors (BOD). BOD members are also property owners and residents of the community. They're volunteers with roles like:
- Developing and enforcing community governance
- Coordinating the upkeep of common or shared areas
- Handling association financial management tasks
- Creating and implementing resident engagement strategies
- Communicating with residents and helping resolve disputes
Since board members are volunteers, they also have their work and personal lives to attend to. As such, they can get overwhelmed by all their extra (and unpaid) HOA duties.
The Problem With Heavy BOD Workloads
If BOD members fail to perform their duties, the community can suffer. For instance, structures may become ill-maintained, reducing rather than increasing HOA property values. Member disputes may also go unresolved, leading to unhappy residents.
Professional Community Association Management to the Rescue
A community association management company can help by taking over many board members' duties. Because the company gets paid to manage the community, it fully commits its time and efforts to performing its BOD-assigned roles. From implementing community rules to budgeting, financial management, and maintenance, these are just some tasks an association management firm can help with.
Enhance Community Living Experiences
Many homeowners with associations say they're happy and satisfied. As the Foundation for Community Association Research (FCAR) found, 86% rate community experiences as "very good," "good," or "neutral." Over seven in ten also say community managers provide value and support to residents.
