HavenHOA vs HOA Start
HOA Start bundles a lot in — but gates its real price behind a sales call and adds named fees on top. Here's why HavenHOA is the more transparent choice.

Why HavenHOA wins
HOA Start.s plans are billed annually, but the exact price for your community sits behind a sales inquiry, and a one-time mobile app fee applies on top of the two lower tiers. HavenHOA publishes its full pricing on the pricing page — no sales call required. HavenHOA also includes a full double-entry general ledger with one-click QuickBooks sync, which HOA Start positions only as an external companion tool.
