FAQ
Common HOA online voting questions
Answers for boards, community managers, inspectors, attorneys, and homeowners evaluating HOA online voting software.
Public-record demo workspaces
A public demo is an unofficial preview generated from public association records. It does not mean the association uses HOABallot and it does not accept official votes.
- No private homeowner roster is included
- Public officers are not shown as official candidates
- Associations can request corrections or claim the workspace
Election workflows
HOABallot supports board elections, nominations, amendments, budgets, assessments, recalls, surveys, proxies, quorum-only sessions, and hybrid paper plus online ballots.
- Weighted and entitlement-based voting
- Secret ballot separation when needed
- Paper and proxy reconciliation against one voter ledger
State and governing-document review
HOABallot is designed to support state-specific rules and community-specific governing documents, but associations should confirm requirements with counsel.
- Configurable voting windows and quorum thresholds
- Review workflow for inspectors and counsel
- Compliance-ready tools, not a guarantee of legal compliance
