The Community Operating System for Resident Associations

 

Running a Resident Association shouldn’t depend on a handful of exhausted volunteers and expensive service providers. Smart Communities helps Resident Associations, Homeowners Associations and Improvement Districts increase membership collections, improve resident communications, raise sustainable funding and manage community issues through our integrated technology platform.

Every Resident Association faces the same challenges.

The current way of running communities is burning out volunteers and leaving potential funding on the table.

Revenue

Residents don't understand the value of paying monthly community levies.

Communication

WhatsApp groups become noisy and important updates are missed.

Administration

Too much manual work.
Too many spreadsheets.

Funding

Projects stall because there isn't enough sustainable income.

Service Delivery

Issues are reported but nobody knows what happened afterwards.

Engagement

Too few volunteers.
Too little participation.

A Better Way to Run Your Community

Most communities already have passionate volunteers. What they often lack are the systems, funding mechanisms and communication tools needed to grow sustainably. Smart Communities combines proven community transformation practices with powerful technology and our network of civil society partners so your committee can spend less time on administration and more time on community impact and transformation.

Turn Community Support Into Sustainable Funding

Many Resident Associations struggle to raise the funding needed to maintain parks, improve safety and support community initiatives. Smart Communities helps make fundraising easier by enabling contributions to be supported by Section 18A tax certificates through our registered Public Benefit Organisation structure, giving donors an added incentive to contribute. Making it easier for people and businesses to support the community.
