compass property management your trusted guide for community associations

Homeowners associations (HOAs) play a crucial role in maintaining property values and community standards. But successfully managing an HOA—especially in growing suburban areas like Minnetonka, Plymouth, Maple Grove, Eden Prairie, and Wayzata—requires time, expertise, and consistency. That’s where a trusted HOA property management company like Compass Management comes in.

Here’s how an experienced HOA property manager can help your community thrive and ease the burden on board members.



1. Expert Guidance for Board Members

Volunteer board members are often passionate residents, but they may not have professional experience in property management or association governance. An HOA property manager offers:

  • Board training and education

  • Interpretation of bylaws, rules, and regulations

  • Help with compliance and enforcement issues

  • Guidance on best practices and risk management

Compass Management empowers board members in western Minneapolis suburbs with the tools and knowledge needed to lead confidently.


2. Streamlined Financial Management

Managing an HOA’s finances is one of the board’s most important—and most complex—responsibilities. An HOA property manager provides:

  • Budget preparation and forecasting

  • Dues collection and delinquency tracking

  • Monthly financial reporting

  • Reserve fund planning

Our HOA financial management services help communities in Chanhassen, Hopkins, and beyond stay fiscally healthy and accountable.


3. Vendor Coordination and Maintenance Oversight

From landscaping to snow removal, managing vendors is time-consuming. Compass Management takes the lead on:

  • Sourcing and vetting qualified vendors

  • Negotiating contracts

  • Scheduling routine maintenance

  • Overseeing emergency repairs

We ensure your HOA’s common areas are well maintained and compliant with local standards—all while respecting your community’s budget.


4. Transparent Communication with Homeowners

Clear, consistent communication keeps your residents informed and engaged. Compass Management assists with:

  • Regular newsletters and email updates

  • Homeowner portals for easy access to documents and payments

  • Meeting coordination and documentation

  • Responding to homeowner inquiries and concerns

With our help, communities across the western Minneapolis metro benefit from a more connected and satisfied homeowner base.


5. Legal and Regulatory Compliance

Navigating the legal requirements of an HOA can be tricky. A professional HOA management company helps ensure compliance with:

  • Minnesota state HOA laws

  • Local ordinances

  • Fair housing guidelines

  • Annual reporting and disclosures

We stay on top of the latest legal developments so your board doesn’t have to.
