Higher prices for HOA homes nationally versus similar homes outside an HOA.
Clarke & Freedman, Journal of Urban Economics, 2019WHY CHOOSE BC COMMUNITIES
Best Choice.BC Communities.
We studied what frustrates homeowners and boards across America, then built a management company designed to solve every one of those problems with human care and intelligent technology.
THE VALUE OF A WELL-RUN COMMUNITY
Great ManagementIs A Home Value Strategy.
Decades of research point the same direction: well-governed, well-kept communities are worth more. Homes in HOAs have been found to sell for about 4% to 5.4% more than comparable homes outside them, and strong curb appeal is linked to an average 7% premium. The difference between an average HOA and a great one is how well it is run. That is where BC Communities comes in.
Higher home values found for HOA homes in Northern Virginia, close to $14,000 per home.
Agan & Tabarrok, Regulation (Cato), 2005Average premium for homes with strong curb appeal, tidy landscaping and well-kept exteriors.
University Of Texas At Arlington, 2025Potential price lift from improved landscaping and house appearance.
Journal Of Environmental Horticulture, 2012At a $400,000 average home value, a 4% community-wide premium represents roughly $7.2 Million in combined homeowner value. Protecting and growing that premium is the job. Our in-house pool service, scheduled inspections, reserve planning and fast follow-through are built to keep every common area, entrance and amenity looking its best, so your community can keep earning it.
WE STUDIED WHAT PEOPLE WANT
Most Homeowners Are Content.Very Few Are Delighted.
The nation’s largest homeowner survey shows most residents feel good about their association. But only about one in three say their board absolutely serves the community’s best interests. That gap between “fine” and “fantastic” is exactly where we aim.
Rate their community association experience positive or neutral.
