HOA? Get it Checked Out the Right Way!

By Beth Benner, November 9, 2021

Ever looked, assisted, offered, or purchased a home that has an HOA? We’re right there with you and know that often transactions involving HOAs can feel a level of uneasiness due to the added layer of shifting through the numerous, often lengthy HOA documents that could provide a wide range of important information. In addition to the amount of documents, most of us have limited knowledge and ability to know what red flags to look for in these documents and how to interpret them correctly.

That’s where CID Analytics comes in. CID Analytics is our trusted partner for all things HOA. The CIDA Report is one that we recommend to many of our hopeful buyers to ensure that they are going into a purchase the best informed that they can be. Not only does the reporting service comb through all of those HOA documents and are well informed on what to look for, the report will also help buyers dig into any fees that could effect them down the road and help to negate the headache later on.
