There are approximately 300,000 homeowner associations in the United States. Collectively, this represents over 40 million households or 53% of the owner occupied households in the America. It also represents millions of volunteers that serve on association boards and committees. This is important since approximately 70% of all homeowner associations are completely managed by volunteers!
HOA-USA had its beginnings in 2003 with the launch of a single state website in North Carolina. We began the task of learning as much as possible about this industry and two years later launched a second generation of the website. In 2008, we launched three additional state sites in South Carolina, Virginia, and Vermont. In 2010, we launched websites for Florida, Georgia and Texas. Now, in 2011 we are working nationwide with the launch of www.hoa-usa.com.
Significant resources are required to build a comprehensive directory of all homeowner associations in the nation, as well as researching state laws and issues that vary widely. We will be adding new state directories of associations over the coming months, while continually adding new educational content to the site.
