Communities and their management teams always try to please the homeowners they serve, but did you know 89% of homeowners rate their HOA experience as very good or neutral? The latest polls have shown favorability toward these associations and all they do to provide for community members.

– 74% say their community managers provide value and support too residents within their associations
– 94% say their associations rules protect and enhance property values
While it’s impressive that the results of these polls are overwhelmingly positive, past research shows that for the past 8 years, community members have been happy with the associations they reside in.
