For boards, managers, and management companies

One Provider Network. One Record. No Cost to Your Community.

Give your board or management team free access to the HOA Provider Registry. Search providers, organize your community provider list, monitor Registry status, request new providers, and maintain a documented record of the businesses serving your community.

Free for homeowners associations and property management companies.

No subscription. No per-user fee. No charge to residents.

Community benefits

Less administration. Better visibility. A record that lasts.

01

Less vendor administration

Reduce the repeated research and manual record collection required every time a community needs a provider. Look a business up once; the record stays with your community.

02

Better provider visibility

See the relevant provider information in one place:

  • Registry ID
  • Registry status
  • Service categories
  • Service area
  • Verification information
  • Credentials reviewed
  • Last Registry review
  • Community relationships
  • Status history
03

Automatic monitoring

Follow the providers your community uses. When a followed provider's Registry status materially changes, such as Approved to Under Review, or Suspended to Approved, the change appears on your dashboard and verified members of your organization receive an email (each person can turn this off in Settings). Credentials that have expired or expire within 30 days are flagged on your dashboard.

A record the next board inherits

Your provider record should outlast your board.

Boards change. Property managers change. Employees leave. Institutional knowledge disappears with them.

The Registry maintains a persistent record of the businesses your community uses, follows, recommends, or has previously reviewed. When leadership changes, your provider history remains.

  • Relationship designations: current, approved, preferred, previously used, under consideration, monitoringPrivate

Internal designations stay private to your organization. Nothing is published without your permission.

How it works

Free access in minutes.

Activate free access

Eight short fields. A one-time code confirms your email and phone. No password, no subscription.

Add the providers you already use

Search real business records by name, city, ZIP, or category. Follow each one to add it to your community record with a relationship designation.

Request registration from businesses not yet on the record

A business that has not established its Registry record shows Not Yet Registered. One tap sends the request; the business is told a community asked, never which one.

Tell the Registry what your community needs

Record the categories where you want more registered businesses. Real community demand is what brings businesses onto the record.

Manage a whole portfolio

Property management companies add every community they manage under one account and see provider standing across the portfolio.

Adopt the HOA Provider Registry Standard

A New Standard for Community Access

HOA Provider Registry is working with communities to establish consistent standards for businesses seeking organized access to homeowners, HOA referrals, community service programs, and community-wide opportunities.

Once your community has used the Registry and built its provider record, your board may choose to reference the Registry in its own policies. Adoption is optional and comes after value, not before it.

Where communities reference the Standard

  • HOA-contracted work
  • HOA referral programs
  • Community-sponsored service programs
  • Organized community solicitation
  • Community-wide promotions
  • Preferred-provider programs
  • DealMate service requests
  • Bulk homeowner service programs

Sample policy language

“For community-sponsored programs, referrals, organized solicitation, and Association-contracted work, the Association may require that a business hold current Approved standing with the HOA Provider Registry and include its Registry ID on proposals, contracts, and invoices, where permitted by applicable law and the Association's governing documents.”

Important limitation. Participating communities may establish provider requirements for certain community-sponsored programs, referrals, solicitation activities, contracts, or other access categories where permitted by applicable law and their governing documents. HOA Provider Registry itself has no authority to prohibit a homeowner from hiring a lawful service provider. Mandatory-access language should be reviewed by the association's attorney before adoption.
Frequently asked

Community questions

What does free access cost, really?
Nothing. There is no subscription, no per-user fee, and no charge to residents. The Registry is funded by business registration fees.
Is the Registry a substitute for checking a contractor's state license?
No. Registry staff review the licensing on file after a record is published and show each result on the record, under the Registry review criteria, but the Registry is not a licensing authority. Confirm licensing with the issuing state agency and request a certificate of insurance directly from the business.
Does a business know which community requested its registration?
No. The business is told that a homeowners association or property management organization requested its registration. Your organization is not identified unless you choose to tell them.
Are our internal provider designations and notes public?
No. Relationship designations, notes, requests, and needs are private to your organization. If your community asks the Registry for a public profile and it is approved, the profile shows only the providers you choose to list.
Can a business pay to improve its status?
No. The registration fee establishes the Registry record, which is published in Approved standing when registration is complete. Credentials are then reviewed. No payment buys a better position in search or protection from review, suspension, or removal. Active Community Provider status shows participation in the optional DealMate Direct Job Program; it is not a higher level of review.
Who operates the Registry?
HOA Provider Registry is privately operated and administered by DealMate Holdings, LLC. It is not a government agency, a state licensing authority, or an HOA. Optional job-distribution programs may be operated separately through DealMate. See the transparency statement.
