AppFolio
Rental-property platform with a real HOA module — high minimums, multiple-fund accounting.
AppFolio’s differentiator is the rental-plus-HOA stack: fund accounting and CAM workflows inside a property-management product volunteer boards already know from apartments. That is why a 40-unit self-managed HOA gets pulled into a demo — and why the monthly minimum is usually the whole story for that board.
For a firm running associations (and often rentals), AppFolio is a peer of Buildium, CINC, and Vantaca. Evaluate the HOA module’s GL, implementation, and resident UX — not a blog star rating.
Best for
Established management companies that want one system for associations and often rentals, with multiple-fund accounting.
Pricing notes
Model is per-unit professional pricing with a high monthly minimum relative to volunteer-board tools. Price is published only in broad strokes; a consultation is normal. Payment processing is extra. Verify current minimums on their site or with sales.
