HOA Proof & Dispute Tracker

A homeowner-facing web app that builds a time-stamped “evidence binder” for HOA disputes by ingesting approval emails, attachments (e.g., schedule exhibits), newsletters, deed restrictions, and photos, then generating a jurisdiction-agnostic dispute timeline and ready-to-send response packets. It also tracks deadlines, logs communications, and provides board-meeting and hearing checklists tailored to common HOA workflows.

Target customer

Homeowners and small landlords in HOA-managed communities who are contesting a violation notice, fine, or reversal of a prior architectural approval; secondary customer: small-firm attorneys/paralegals who handle HOA disputes and want standardized client intake and evidence packaging.

Problem-solution fit

When an HOA reverses course, residents need fast, organized proof (prior approvals, governing documents, compliance details) and a repeatable process for responding before fines escalate or property actions occur. This product reduces legal spend and time by turning scattered emails/PDFs/photos into a structured record, deadline plan, and dispute packet that matches how HOAs and attorneys evaluate these cases.
