See how much your community spends on HOA software or management company fees each year — and how much you would keep by switching to KindHOA's free and flat-rate plans.
Last updated September 5, 2026
Quick answer
Per-unit HOA software commonly costs $1.50–$3.00 per unit per month, so a 100-home community pays roughly $1,800–$3,600 a year. Management companies often charge $20–$40 per door per month ($24,000–$48,000/yr for 100 homes). KindHOA Good Neighbor is $0 and Board Automation is a flat $29/month ($348/year) — the difference stays in your reserve fund. Toggle modes below.

Start KindHOAPer-unit HOA software fees commonly run about $1.50 to $3.00 per unit per month, so a 100-home community often pays roughly $150 to $300 per month, or $1,800 to $3,600 per year, before payment-processing fees. Quote-based and enterprise platforms can cost more. Enter your own numbers above for an exact figure.

This calculator does the math for both models and compares the result against KindHOA's free Good Neighbor tier and flat $29/month Board Automation tier.
Yes. KindHOA's Good Neighbor plan is free forever with online dues, documents, maintenance, ARC, violations, and formal elections, with no per-unit fees.

No — this calculator compares software subscription costs only.

The calculator shows your annual management cost versus KindHOA Good Neighbor ($0) or Board Automation ($29/mo flat).
