How your virtual assistant can help with HOA CAPEX projects
HOA CAPEX (capital expense) projects are major investments that aim to upgrade, restore, or maintain the physical, operational, or technological assets of a homeowner’s association. These projects can include roof replacements, HVAC upgrades, exterior restoration, LED lighting retrofits, and more.
HOA CAPEX projects are different from regular maintenance costs, which are expenses for the regular repair or replacement of current assets. Maintenance costs are funded by the HOA’s operating fund, while CAPEX projects are funded by the HOA’s reserve fund.
HOA CAPEX projects can benefit the community by increasing the property values, enhancing the quality of life, extending the useful life of the assets, reducing future operating costs, and improving efficiency and capacity.
However, HOA CAPEX projects can also be challenging to plan, execute, and manage. They require a lot of research, budgeting, accounting, bidding, contracting, scheduling, supervising, and reporting. They also involve a lot of communication and coordination with the board members, homeowners, vendors, contractors, and other stakeholders.
This is where a virtual assistant can help. A virtual assistant can perform a wide range of tasks for your HOA. A virtual assistant can help you with HOA CAPEX projects by:
