TLDR
PropertyBoss does not publish pricing. All quotes are custom based on portfolio size, modules selected, and contract terms. The platform targets mid-market residential property management companies and HOA management firms -- not self-managed volunteer boards. Expect pricing to start in the hundreds per month before implementation and training costs are added.

Start Free TrialThe quote-based pricing model
PropertyBoss does not have a public pricing page. Every potential customer goes through a sales consultation to receive a custom quote. This is consistent with how mid-market property management software is typically sold — AppFolio, Vantaca, and CINC Systems use the same model.
Market data from review platforms and software directories places smaller management company pricing in the $200-500+/month range for base platform access. Larger portfolios with multiple modules and higher unit counts push costs considerably higher. Implementation fees, staff training, and data migration are billed separately and can represent a meaningful one-time cost on top of ongoing subscription fees.
What the platform covers
PropertyBoss is a comprehensive property management system designed for mid-market companies running mixed residential, commercial, and HOA portfolios. Core features include:
- HOA and condo management: Dues billing, violation tracking and notices, work order management, owner and resident portals, and board document storage
- Financial management: General ledger, accounts payable and receivable, bank reconciliation, financial reporting, and budget management
- Maintenance: Work order lifecycle management, vendor tracking, and inspection workflows
- Communication: Owner notices, violation letters, and bulk communications
The HOA module is one component of a broader property management platform. Management companies that handle both rental properties and HOA communities benefit from the unified system. For a company that only manages associations, the platform includes more residential rental tooling than the HOA-only use case requires.
Reserve fund accounting: configured, not enforced
PropertyBoss provides general ledger functionality that supports tracking operating and reserve funds in separate accounts. The key distinction is that this separation is configured by the accountant or property manager — it is not enforced structurally by the platform. A transaction can be posted to the wrong fund account without the system stopping it.
For professional management companies with trained accounting staff, this works. For volunteer board treasurers without accounting backgrounds, the risk of commingling operating and reserve funds exists if the ledger is not set up and maintained correctly. State statutes in Florida, California, Washington, and Nevada explicitly prohibit commingling of HOA funds; a platform that enforces the separation at the data layer eliminates that compliance risk by design.
Who PropertyBoss is built for
PropertyBoss targets professional property management firms managing portfolios that include residential rentals, commercial properties, and HOA/condo associations. The minimum contract structure, quote-based sales process, and pricing scale all assume a management company amortizing software costs across multiple client communities.
A firm managing 40 HOAs and 200 rental units benefits from a unified system that handles both. A self-managed volunteer board running a single 80-unit condominium does not map to that buyer profile.
The cost comparison for self-managed boards
If a management company is managing your HOA and evaluating software, PropertyBoss may appear in their tooling review. The cost is embedded in management fees, not a separate line item for the board.
If your board is self-managed and researching software directly, the proprietary pricing model and management-company focus make PropertyBoss a poor fit. BoardStack charges $49/mo flat for communities with 51-200 homes, with reserve fund compliance — operating/reserve fund separation enforced at the database layer, state-specific reserve requirement guidance, and financial reporting for board meetings — included at that price. No per-unit fees, no implementation costs, and no annual contract required to start.
The $49/mo is the full cost. PropertyBoss’s quote-based pricing starts higher and layers additional costs on top.

Q&A
Does PropertyBoss publish pricing?
No. PropertyBoss does not have a public pricing page. Pricing is available only through a sales consultation. The platform uses custom quote-based pricing tailored to portfolio size, selected modules, and contract length. Budget estimates from review platforms suggest starting costs in the $200-500+/month range for smaller management companies, with higher costs for larger portfolios or multi-module configurations.
Q&A
Can a self-managed HOA board use PropertyBoss directly?
No. PropertyBoss targets professional property management companies that manage portfolios of residential, commercial, and HOA properties. The sales process and minimum contract thresholds are structured for management firms, not individual volunteer boards managing a single community. A self-managed board would not fit the buyer profile PropertyBoss is built for.
