## Reviews

### "Made Self-Managing Our HOA Actually Possible" — 5.0/5

> **Joshua** | *28 July 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The feature that has made the biggest difference for us is the ability to send instant email and text blasts to the entire community. As a self-managed HOA, we rely heavily on our pressurized irrigation system, and when there is a shutoff or maintenance issue, being able to notify every resident right away has been huge. We have actually had residents thank us for the transparency and speed of communication, which was not something we could do when a third party was managing us.&#10;&#10;Maintenance requests and architectural committee approvals have also been genuinely useful. Instead of tracking these through scattered email threads, everything comes through the platform, gets routed appropriately, and there is a clear record of what was requested and approved.&#10;&#10;Getting stood up on PayHOA was also easier than expected. We transitioned from a fully managed HOA to a self-managed one, and onboarding was mostly self-serve, though it felt like support was there if we needed it. That mattered a lot going from a management company handling everything to an all volunteer board handling it ourselves.&#10;&#10;The platform also works well across different comfort levels. I am probably the power user on our board, while others mostly just respond to notifications for things like polls or architectural review requests, and PayHOA handles both of those use cases without friction.
> 
> **Cons**: The main friction point for us is the connection between invoices and payments in PayHOA and our actual bank account records. It does not feel fully connected, and reconciling the two takes more consistent attention than we are always able to give it. We are an all volunteer board, everyone has a full time job, and this is a side responsibility, so we are not always on top of it the way a dedicated bookkeeper would be. When we do stay on top of it, it works well and helps keep our balance sheet accurate, but the gap between the platform and our bank is something we notice.
> 
> Overall, PayHOA has let our all volunteer board do what would otherwise require a paid property management company, at a fraction of the cost. The transition from fully managed to self-managed could have been a lot rockier than it was, and PayHOA is a big part of why it went smoothly. Between the community communication tools, maintenance and architectural request tracking, and reasonably easy onboarding, it has become a core part of how we operate. The bank reconciliation gap is a real drawback, but it has not outweighed the overall value for us.

### "PayHOA Saves Oregon HOA $35k Annually" — 5.0/5

> **Kristin** | *28 July 2026* | Civic & Social Organization | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Allowed us to self-manage 309 properties by eliminating a property management company to save about $35k per year. Receive the same benefits with portal access but we have control which has sped up communications, transparency and accuracy. Win for everyone\!
> 
> **Cons**: Only slight hiccup is the email broadcast tools are not as robust as what we had been using with MailChimp.
> 
> Excellent—well worth it as it streamlines our invoicing, record keeping, architectural reviews, compliance and more.

### "Great value" — 5.0/5

> **Linda** | *23 August 2026* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The support is excellent. Getting started takes effort. There is a lot to the software, so help from the experts is critical.
> 
> **Cons**: There was a faulty software update that evidently removed a link that I needed. It caused me some grief. When I asked about it, I got the help I needed. They fixed it.
> 
> We have just under 100 properties. We have just finished our first month. It will work well and is a very good value.

### "Not ready for prime time" — 2.0/5

> **Mark** | *6 August 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The homeowner portal works fairly well, though it could be more intuitive.  Some of our homeowners find it difficult to navigate.
> 
> **Cons**: The accounting features, or lack of.  Basic things like having voucher checks actually including some payment information on them.  The necessity to use journal entries for so many things.  Not having the ability to record recurring payables, other than with batch JE.  The reporting is terrible.  While your marketing materials state that QuickBooks isn't necessary is misleading, as this product is not QuickBooks by any stretch of the imagination.
> 
> Mostly negative, I'm sorry to say.  Easy to use though.  The support is decent, or at least prompt.  For anyone coming from QuickBooks, or even free accounting software like Wave, PayHOA is mostly frustrating.  And who needs so many "approvals" for everything?  Honestly this seems like a beta-test product, at least on the accounting side.  The portal works fairly well.

### "A user-friendly program with amazing customer service" — 5.0/5

> **Kyla** | *21 August 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about PayHOA is the customer service and the user-friendly nature. It gives homeowners the ability to pay online, and it gives the board the opportunity to send mass emails, monitor the open rate, and keep track of our financials all in one place.
> 
> **Cons**: The main thing that comes to mind is not being able to give homeowners the ability to edit their own contact information and upload documents. There are documents that we ask for when we give parking passes, and it would be a lot easier to maintain everything in one place and less work for the board if the owners could do that themselves, and then we can lock their account back down so they can’t keep going back in and making changes all the time.
> 
> PayHOA has been great to use and seems very reasonably priced for what you’re getting. They keep improving their platform to make it even more efficient and to provide more great services that are helpful to boards and communities.
