Built by people who've lived the HOA problem
NeighborhoodHQ started from a simple frustration — community management software was either too expensive, too complicated, or built for landlords, not neighbors. We set out to fix that.
Software that puts the community first
Most HOA platforms were built for property managers juggling hundreds of rental units. The accounting is designed for landlords. The workflows assume a full-time staff. The price tags assume an enterprise budget.
NeighborhoodHQ was designed differently — starting with the volunteer board member who just wants to run a fair, well-organized community without a degree in property management software.
Transparent
No hidden fees, no per-email charges, no surprise add-ons. One price, every feature.
Purpose-Built for HOAs
Not adapted from rental software. Built from the ground up for community associations and the people who run them.
Powerful but Approachable
Enterprise-grade workflow automation and compliance tools — without the enterprise learning curve or price tag.
From HOA Central to NeighborhoodHQ
HOA Central launched in 2022 as a straightforward platform for community management. It worked. Communities signed up. Boards got organized.
Then a competitor acquired the hoacentral.com domain — a sharp reminder that generic names are not defensible brands. You can build great software on a generic name, but you can't protect it.
NeighborhoodHQ is the new identity: a name that reflects what the product actually does — give neighborhoods a headquarters. One place for everything your community runs on.
The platform, the team, and the mission are the same. The name is better.

HOA Central Launches
A straightforward community management platform designed for volunteer boards and small management companies.
Competitor Acquires hoacentral.com

NeighborhoodHQ Is Born
A new identity, a new domain, a better name. Same mission: make community management effortless.
One platform. Every community.
Self-Managed HOAs
Volunteer boards running their own community deserve the same tools as professional managers. Full compliance, accounting, communications, and member management — at a price that doesn't require raising dues.
Management Companies
One login. Every community. A management company portal that gives you a cross-community view of open violations, ARB requests, and service tickets — so your team spends less time switching tabs and more time serving clients.
Growing Communities
Start free. Add features as you need them. NeighborhoodHQ grows with your community from an informal neighborhood group all the way to a professionally managed HOA.
NeighborhoodHQ works as hard for your business as it does for your communities
Managing HOAs is a service business. NeighborhoodHQ is designed to make that service more profitable, less reactive, and significantly less manual — without adding headcount.
Your Portfolio, Your Revenue
The communities you manage are home to thousands of residents. Local businesses want to reach them. NeighborhoodHQ creates that connection and shares the return directly with your firm — turning your managed portfolio into a revenue asset, not just a service obligation.
Engaged Communities Manage Themselves
The single biggest driver of management company workload isn't violations or ARBs — it's a community that doesn't communicate. When residents are informed, connected, and heard through the app, inbound calls and emails drop. Fewer fires means more capacity for the work that actually grows your business.
AI That Works the Way Your Team Does
NeighborhoodHQ's AI surfaces what needs attention — drafting routine notices, flagging overdue items, and queuing work before your team even opens their inbox. Every AI action has a human reviewer before anything is sent or published. The efficiency of automation, with the judgment of your experienced staff.
