AMG will support the close-knit community of custom homes established in 1974 with financial services, including creating and managing contracts, procuring insurance, maintaining accurate financial records, collecting assessments and paying association bills.

As we put our vision into action, we need an experienced, well-equipped partner to help us communicate what’s new. AMG is that good partner.”

Who Really Cares About Their HOA?


2015 National HOA Survey- CHPPI conducted a nationwide online survey of homeowners and real estate sector professionals to determine public perception of HOAs.
 
 The survey asked respondents to rate the relative seriousness of 26 commonly documented HOA problems and complaints, whether or not they have been involved in a dispute with their HOA, and if they suffered any adverse effects.
 
More than 300 people responded to the survey within a 50 day period. Results indicate that half of respondents work in the Real Estate industry, and nearly 1 in 5 identify themselves as Community Volunteers. 
 
So, Who Cares About My HOA? No one. And that’s a problem. 
96% of our respondents stated that there is at least a moderate problem with “Apathy, lack of involvement.
