🎉 Big news at HOA Accounting Services: we're launching our new Client Success Team!

This team exists for one reason - to ensure a seamless experience for our clients, from the moment they sign on for services and through any transitions. This team will be led by our Director of Business Development, Heather Moore and it's first team member will be Angela Gagnon.

Angela has previously worked with clients in her Senior AP/Conversion Specialist role and we think she will be excellent in this new role supporting our clients.

Welcome to the new role, Angela! We can't wait to see what this team builds. 🙌

Huge congrats to Taylor on earning her Florida insurance license! 🎉

As HOA Accounting Services continues expanding beyond California, having team members licensed in the states we're growing into isn't just a nice-to-have, it's what makes that growth possible. Taylor's initiative here directly supports our ability to serve HOA and condo associations in Florida with the same level of expertise our clients already count on.

Proud to have her on the team, and excited for what this opens up as we keep expanding nationwide.

Happy Client Anniversary! 🥳

Twenty years ago, Strawberry Square HOA in San Jose trusted us with their books. Two decades later, that partnership is still going strong.

That kind of relationship does not happen by accident. It takes a board that stays engaged, a management team that communicates well, and an accounting partner who shows up consistently, year after year.

We are proud to have been part of Strawberry Square's story for 20 years, and we are looking forward to the next 20.

Thank you to the board, the management team, and everyone who has made this partnership work.

What an Accounting Company and/or Management Company Transition Should look like, Financially

The topic of transitions between Accounting Companies and Management Companies has been a popular one recently. Something seems to have changed in the industry, creating a more touch and go approach with rushed conversions. Although Community records ultimately belong to the Association and not a Management Company, moving those records to a new provider can be difficult. Arrangements should be made to prepare for this in advance.

At HOA Accounting Services, smooth transitions are extremely important to us. They are the first impression when they are inbound and can set the tone for the relationship. Even on the way out, they can be a final impression and what makes a difference in a client's decision to come back to a company when their needs change in the future.

Check out our latest article:

HOA Accounting Services has worked through hundreds of HOA management company transitions, on both sides of the handoff. We know what clean books look like - reach out for a proposal request today.

The Hidden Cost of In-House Accounting for Large-Scale Communities

Most boards evaluating in-house vs. outsourced accounting stop the conversation at salary. That's the wrong number to anchor on.
For a 500+ unit community, a fully-loaded accounting FTE runs $105K–$155K a year once you factor in payroll taxes, benefits, software, and training, and that's before you account for what happens when that person leaves. Turnover at this scale isn't an inconvenience, it's an operational risk event: lost continuity, delayed reconciliations, exposure boards rarely see coming until it's already cost them.

Our latest article breaks down where the real costs live, staffing overhead, error rates that scale faster than headcount, and the turnover risk most boards never price in.

Read it here:

Staffing Overhead, Error Rates, and Turnover Risk vs. the Outsourced Model for 500+ Unit Communities - this article breaks it all down.

Tomorrow is National Community Association Managers Day, and we want to take a moment to recognize the people we work alongside every day.

Community association managers carry an enormous amount. They're fielding homeowner calls, coordinating vendors, navigating board dynamics, managing compliance, and doing it all while keeping communities running smoothly behind the scenes. It's not glamorous work, and it rarely gets the recognition it deserves.

At HOA Accounting Services, we exist to support you, not complicate your job. We know that when the financials are clean, transparent, and on time, your life gets easier and your boards get confident. That's what we're here for.

To every manager and management company we have the privilege of partnering with: thank you. What you do matters more than most homeowners will ever realize.

Happy National Community Association Managers Day. 🏡
