Self-Managed HOA
In a self-managed HOA, the board members (homeowners) take on all administrative, financial, and operational responsibilities.
Pros
1. Cost Savings
– Eliminates the need for professional management fees.
– More funds available for community improvements.
2. Direct Control
– Decisions are made by community members who are invested in the neighborhood.
– Faster decision-making since there’s no middleman.
3. Custom Policies
– Policies can be tailored specifically to the community without outside influence.
Cons
1. Time-Intensive
– Board members must dedicate significant time to manage finances, maintenance, and compliance issues.
– Risk of burnout among volunteers.
2. Lack of Expertise
– Board members may lack the legal, financial, or operational knowledge needed to run an HOA effectively.
– Could lead to costly mistakes or liability issues.
3. Conflict of Interest
– Disagreements between neighbors can complicate governance.
– Personal relationships may interfere with objective decision-making.
4. Limited Resources
– A lack of access to professional tools, software, and vendor networks.
