Karen — Oakwood Preserve: Q3 assessments drafted, 14 resident inquiries handled, board agenda prepped. Your team touched none of it.
The Declarant Problem

You're in the business of building homes. Not managing HOAs.

Between first closing and turnover, every community you build becomes an operational burden your team wasn't hired to carry. The work piles up, the calls don't stop, and someone on your sales floor is explaining architectural guidelines instead of closing.

Salespeople fielding HOA calls

Every resident question that hits your sales office is a deal that isn't closing.

Assessment pricing anxiety

Price too high and you kill sales. Too low and you create a deficit that detonates at turnover.

Documents drafted from scratch

CC&Rs, bylaws, architectural guidelines—recreated community by community.

Management companies that underperform

You hire them to make the problem go away. They make residents angrier and cost you referrals.

Meet Karen.
She runs your communities.

Karen is your AI community operations manager. She handles resident inquiries, generates documents, manages financials, preps boards, and drafts responses—across every community in your portfolio, simultaneously.

Trained on HOA operations
Operational Freedom

Zero HOA calls to your sales office

Karen handles 60–90% of resident inquiries—maintenance requests, payment questions, architectural reviews, CC&R lookups—so your salespeople never leave the floor to explain trash day schedules.

Your salespeople sell. Period.
Financial Precision

Assessment pricing you can defend

Karen analyzes comparable communities, reserves requirements, and operating costs to generate assessment pricing that moves units without creating a deficit that blows up at turnover. Defensible numbers, not guesswork.

Right-priced from day one
Risk Reduction

CC&Rs and governance docs, handled

Stop paying attorneys to draft from scratch for every community. Karen generates CC&Rs, bylaws, and architectural guidelines from your templates—then knows every section by number when residents ask about them.

Draft, review, done
Clean Exit

Board-ready operations from day one

Meeting prep, financial summaries, violation tracking, response drafting—Karen runs the board-level work so you never hire a management company during declarant. When turnover comes, the board inherits a running system.

No management company needed

This used to land on your sales team

A resident wants to paint their front door. Before Vestra, this hits your sales office. Someone digs through architectural guidelines, types a response, starts a paper approval process. Now Karen handles the whole thing—instantly, accurately, citing the exact section.

Multiply this by hundreds of residents across your portfolio.

Can I paint my front door a different color?
Great question! Your community does allow front door repainting, but it needs to be from the approved color palette. I found the list in your Architectural Guidelines, Section 3.4.

Your Clean Exit

Walk away with your reputation intact

When it's time to hand off, the board inherits a running community—not a box of binders. Karen keeps operating after turnover, so your brand is remembered for well-run neighborhoods.

Boards inherit a running system

The board gets Karen—not a stack of paperwork. Financial management, violation tracking, communications, meeting prep, and response drafting all continue. The board never needs to hire a management company, and they never call you asking what happened.

  • One-click response drafting and meeting prep
  • Automated financials and collections continue
  • All community history and documents preserved
  • No management company needed post-turnover

Happy residents sell your next project

From day one, residents get an always-on concierge who actually responds. Instant answers from actual community documents, easy payments, quick request handling. When people love where they live, they tell friends who are shopping for homes.

  • Instant answers sourced from community docs
  • One-tap payments with autopay
  • Maintenance and architectural requests handled fast
  • Resident satisfaction that becomes referrals
