Asking the lawn gnomes to behave
While PayHOA is a popular tool, its pricing model penalizes growing communities by charging per home (starting at $49/month and rising). KindHOA offers a robust, free-forever platform for core dues collection and community coordination, alongside a flat $29/month automation tier.
PayHOA charges based on how many units or doors you have in your community. As your neighborhood expands or recruits more homes, your monthly invoice goes up. KindHOA believes in keeping budgets predictable. We charge **$0** for our core features, and a flat **$29/month** for advanced automation, regardless of your neighborhood size.
KindHOA features the **Smart Assistant**, an AI governance companion integrated directly with your community files. Residents can ask questions like *"Where do I submit architectural forms?"* or *"What is our policy on fences?"* and the assistant crawls your CC&Rs to provide immediate, compliant citations. PayHOA does not offer semantic document AI.
