# The AI receptionist for HOA management that answers homeowners around the clock

An AI receptionist for HOA management answers homeowner calls 24/7 for every association you manage. It answers common questions about dues, pool hours, trash pickup and architectural requests from your notes, logs common-area problems with the exact location, and sends real emergencies like a clubhouse flood or a broken gate to your on-call manager.

## Why hoa management companies miss calls

- **One manager, dozens of communities:** Your community managers each cover several associations. Homeowners from all of them call the same office line with questions, and each call pulls a manager away from board meetings, inspections and budgets.
- **Common-area emergencies after hours:** A downed tree across the entrance or a water main break in the courtyard does not wait until Monday. Homeowners need a way to reach someone who can dispatch a vendor tonight.
- **The same questions every month:** When are dues due? Can I paint my front door? When does the pool open? Who plows the streets? These repeat endlessly, especially around assessments, budget letters and seasonal changes.

## How does an AI receptionist help HOA management companies?

It gives every homeowner a quick, accurate answer without pulling your managers off their work. The AI knows which community the caller lives in and answers from that association’s notes, like pool hours, trash days, parking rules and how to submit an architectural request. Your managers get texted summaries of the calls that need follow-up, labeled by community, so they can respond in one batch instead of all day long.

## Can it keep different rules for each association?

Yes. You can add separate notes for each community, so a homeowner in a townhouse association hears about its fence and shed rules and a condo owner hears about the elevator schedule for move-ins. The AI asks which community the caller is in before answering anything, so rules never get mixed up. On Pro you can also give each association its own phone number and its own manager for summaries.

## How are after-hours emergencies handled?

You define what counts as an emergency for common areas: flooding, fallen trees blocking roads, gate or elevator failures, fire alarms in shared buildings. Those calls are warm transferred to your on-call manager with the AI’s summary. Unit-level issues that are the owner’s responsibility can be explained politely, with a suggestion to call their own plumber or contractor, and non-urgent complaints, like a burnt-out streetlight or a noisy neighbor, are logged for business hours with the caller’s name and address.

## Can it help during assessment season or annual meetings?

Yes. When a special assessment or budget letter goes out, calls spike. Add a short explanation to the AI’s notes and it answers the common questions consistently, like the due date, the payment options and when the next open meeting is, while capturing anyone who needs to speak to a manager. Your staff handle the complicated conversations instead of repeating the same basics over and over. When the meeting is over, remove the note and the AI goes back to normal.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can it take dues payments over the phone?

No. The AI does not collect payments. It can explain how to pay from your notes, such as the online portal, autopay or the mailing address, and capture callers who need help with their account balance so a manager or your accounting staff can follow up the next business day.

### Can it handle board member calls?

Yes. Board members can be routed differently, for example transferred directly to their community manager during business hours. After hours, their messages are marked as board calls so the manager sees them first, and anything urgent can still reach the on-call phone right away.

### Will it give out other homeowners’ information?

No. The AI answers from the general notes you give it, such as rules, schedules and processes. It does not have access to homeowner records unless you add them, and you should keep private details like balances, violations and contact information out of its notes entirely.

### Does it speak other languages?

Yes. The AI speaks English, Spanish, Russian and Ukrainian today and switches to the caller’s language during the conversation. Summaries still arrive in English so your managers can act on them quickly, with the community, address and issue at the top.

### How much does an HOA answering service cost?

Plans start at $49 a month. Growth at $249 adds warm transfers, calendar booking and recordings. Pro at $499 includes 2,500 minutes and multiple numbers, which suits companies managing many associations. Every plan has a 14-day free trial with no contract, and you can cancel any time.
