Summary

CommonGround is HOA compliance software for volunteer boards in self-managed associations, available on Android, iOS, and web. Board members can photograph a possible violation, add notes, and record its time, location, and evidence; the app can then draft a notice. The system tracks statutory deadlines, blocks specified invalid fining steps, and flags protected categories with statute citations before a notice is sent. Its maker says versioned rule sets based on state statutes and governing documents cover all 50 US states. Actions are timestamped and attributed in an immutable audit trail that boards can export. Owners and fining committee members can use signed links to review evidence, respond, and vote without accounts, passwords, or app installs. It also tracks records requests and provides an owner portal. Plans start at $59.00 USD per month for associations with fewer than 50 parcels, and a 30-day trial is offered. The service is described as compliance guidance, not legal advice, and does not replace an association attorney.

Who it is for

It is aimed at volunteer boards managing self-run HOAs that need violation, deadline, records-request, and fine tracking. The signed-link access can also suit owners and committee members who need to respond without installing an app.

What is good

  • Available on Android, iOS, and web
  • Logs violation evidence and drafts notices
  • Tracks deadlines and specified invalid fining steps
  • Exports timestamped audit packets

What to know first

  • No free plan
  • Small plan covers fewer than 50 parcels
  • Does not replace an association attorney

Verdict

CommonGround brings compliance workflows, evidence capture, and owner responses into one system. Boards should treat it as guidance rather than legal advice and choose a plan by parcel count.
