HOA Intelligence

Grades for HOA boards. Due diligence for the professionals who serve them.

Verified Grades, Not Opinions

665 HOAs in Colorado are currently managed by companies with documented legal, financial, or compliance red flags. Most boards don't know which one they hired. HOA Intelligence grades Colorado HOA management companies across five weighted categories — Legal & Regulatory Standing (32 pts), Complaint History (22 pts), Financial Integrity (20 pts), Professional Credentials (18 pts), and Operational Transparency (8 pts) — built from five public record sources: the Colorado Secretary of State, the DORA / DRE licensing registry, the Better Business Bureau, Colorado Courts public access, and the CAMICB credential registry. The result is a defensible grade for each company — A, B, C+, D, or F — built on a documented methodology designed to withstand attorney and title company scrutiny.

Legal & Regulatory Standing · 32 pts

Secretary of State corporate standing, Colorado court records (litigation and judgments), and government enforcement actions.

Complaint History · 22 pts

Better Business Bureau complaint volume, unanswered and unresolved patterns, weighed against portfolio size.

Financial Integrity · 20 pts

DORA / DRE licensing registry standing plus public fraud, dissolution, and bankruptcy filings.

Professional Credentials · 18 pts

CAI accreditation and CMCA / AMS / PCAM staff credentials verified against the CAMICB registry, plus years in operation.

Operational Transparency · 8 pts

Website, ownership, and contact currency, plus consistency of the public review record.
