How We Help HOAs Save Time & Money

Homeowners Associations (HOAs) play a crucial role in maintaining the quality and value of residential communities. However, managing budgets, estimating the costs of projects, and planning ongoing maintenance and repairs can be complex and time-consuming tasks for HOA boards. Stanton RECC specializes in helping HOAs streamline these responsibilities, ensuring that funds are managed efficiently, projects are accurately estimated, and long-term maintenance is well-planned. Here’s how we can assist your HOA in managing these vital aspects.

If you're considering multiple projects at once, we recommend performing a job walk. Similar to assisted appointments, we'll have a consultant on site to help get multiple bids at once.

So, what exactly is HOA Consulting?

Our version of HOA consulting focuses on helping boards reduce expenses related to maintaining and upgrading the property. We typically partner with HOA boards and property management companies to review upcoming projects, facilitate job walks and get bids from multiple qualified contractors. Here’s a list of our most popular consulting services and how they help both you and our partners save time and money:

General Inquiries
– Many HOAs have pretty basic questions when discussing upcoming projects for the property. Common questions include: “Does this project need to be done now or can it wait? How much will it cost? How long will it take? Will it impact other parts of the property?”
We can help answer many of these questions over the phone. We can also recommend what steps you should take now and how best to move forward when you’re ready.

Contractor Referrals
– The best way to choose a contractor is to get a referral from someone you trust who has used that contractor before. But what if you don’t have someone who can give you a referral? Should you sift through dozens of online listings and call each one?
We can help here too since we’ve worked with over a hundred specialty contractors over the years. We start by talking about your project, your wants and your needs first. From there, we can connect you with up to three contractors that would be a great fit for any project you’re considering.

Assisted Appointments
– This is a game changer. Most HOAs want to get three estimates in order to compare offers and get the best deal. But most people set three different appointments, sit through three different presentations, get three different recommendations and then have the difficult task of comparing three different proposals. We can help by setting one appointment with three contractors at the same time. This saves you time by streamlining the process. This saves you money since each contractor typically reduces their proposal since they know they have to compete for your business. And don’t worry about managing this process by yourself. We’ll make sure to have one of our representatives with you to make this appointment stress-free.

Job Walks
– If you’re in the process of a more extensive remodel or brand-new construction, then an initial job walk might be right for you. We’ve done job walks one-on-one with HOAs and others where we invite out 20+ contractors. These can serve a variety of purposes but will always have a Stanton RECC representative there to make sure the process is a success.

We are also a full-service general contractor and have managed projects both large and small throughout Southern California. 

Connect with us today and we’ll be happy to discuss how we can best serve you.

We help you create a timeline for these projects and allocate funds accordingly, so they don’t become last-minute emergencies.
  • Vendor Coordination and Oversight: We assist with coordinating vendors for maintenance and repairs, ensuring that work is completed on time and within budget. Our consultants also provide oversight to ensure that repairs meet the quality standards of your community.

With a proactive maintenance and repair plan in place, your HOA can extend the lifespan of key community assets, reduce the likelihood of unexpected repairs, and keep residents happy.
