The Problem with Options Today
Why most HOAs struggle to find the right fit:
Full-Service Property Management → Expensive, overreaching, designed for large amenity-heavy communities.
Pure Self-Management → Leads to volunteer burnout, lost consistency with board turnover, and gaps in compliance.
The Result → Communities either overspend or struggle to keep up.

The Tailwater Solution
The best of both worlds—stability with control
Instead of difficult and over priced options, Tailwater Strategies delivers a smarter alternative—professional tools and consistent back-office support with the flexibility and authority of self-management. As a result, communities gain stability and efficiency without losing board control or overspending.
Empowering HOA Boards with The Smarter Middle Ground
Tailwater’s hybrid model delivers more value than full-service managers or self-management — at a fraction of the cost.
| Full-Service Property Management | Self-Service | Tailwater Strategies (Hybrid) |
|---|---|---|
| Handles everything (finance, compliance, vendors, meetings) | Board buys and administers software directly. | Boards keep control of community-facing decisions; Tailwater handles back-office (dues, accounting, compliance notices, records, vendors). |
| Overkill for smaller neighborhoods | Burden stays on volunteers; Adoption often fails due to lack of time and expertise. | Relieves admin burden while keeping Board empowered. |
| Patrols, fines, rigid enforcement | Inconsistent, volunteer-based | Digital logs, photo evidence, automated notices at Board direction. |
| Cost: Highest price Includes unneeded services | Cost: Low software fees High time cost to the Board | Cost: Scaled for your needs. Less than half the cost of most full-service PM. |
Providing your HOA with more value, less cost, no burnout.
