An honest comparison
OurHOA vs AppFolio
AppFolio is enterprise software with enterprise minimums. A self-managed community shouldn't have to clear a monthly spend floor just to collect dues.
| AppFolio | OurHOA | |
|---|---|---|
| Designed for | Large portfolios & PM companies | Individual HOA communities |
| Minimum spend | Monthly minimums common | None - free to 50 homes |
| Time to get started | Sales call, then onboarding | Self-serve in five minutes |
| Resident-first design | Manager-first | Resident-first |
| Pricing | Enterprise per-unit + minimum | $1/home, no minimum |
All the essentials, none of the enterprise overhead - and you'll never sit through a sales call to find out what it costs.
Being straight with you
When AppFolio might be the better pick
If your community is professionally managed at scale, or you need deep property-management tooling like tenant screening and listings, a platform like AppFolio may fit you better. OurHOA is built for self-managed communities that want the essentials done beautifully - not a full property-management suite. We'd rather you find the right tool than the wrong one.
