Management companies

Find associations in your market that may be ready to talk to a new manager

The best time to introduce your firm is right after a board changes. New directors inherit a management contract they did not choose, and many review it in their first year.

Common Elements watches state officer filings and reports when a board turns over or the presidency changes. Combine that with size, age and location to build a short list worth calling, instead of a spreadsheet of every association in the county.

What you get

Board turnover and president changes
Observed from state officer filings, with the date each change was seen. Updated daily in Florida and weekly in Oregon, Connecticut and Arizona.
Management company on file
The firm of record where a state or licensing source names one. Still a minority of records, deepest in Florida, so a blank means we do not know, not that the association is self-managed.
Size, age and value
Units, parcels, earliest year built and county just value per unit, to size the account before you call.
Filter by market
State, county, city, ZIP and association type (HOA, condo, co-op), saved as a view you can reopen.
Alerts
Save the search once and get an email when a new association in your market matches.

How the work goes

  1. 1Open the explorer, pick your counties and a size range, and add the board-change and management columns.
  2. 2Sort by the most recent board change and save the view.
  3. 3Turn the saved view into an alert, and export the list for your CRM.

Which plan fits

Builder, $99/mo or $990/yr.

Builder covers one business developer working a county or two: 1,000 rows per search, six months of change history and the commercial-use license to use the list. Growth adds a year of history, 5,000 rows and webhooks for a team.

Lookback is how far back a plan may search. History only exists from the date each source started being tracked, so a longer window does not add older changes. Free is for evaluation and personal use; a paid plan adds the commercial-use license.

Worth knowing before you pay

  • We do not detect management company changes yet. A board change is a reason to call, not a sign the association is switching.
  • Ongoing change detection runs in Florida, Oregon, Connecticut and Arizona. Other states hold history from bulk loads that is not refreshed on a schedule.
