Messaging

Reach Every Resident with HOA Communication Software

Send announcements, reminders, and urgent alerts to your whole community or the right group by email, SMS, or push. Replies return to one shared board inbox, so nothing gets lost in a volunteer's personal account.

One message. The right residents. Three channels. No switching tools or relying on personal accounts.

Communication Tools That Keep Residents Informed

Keeping residents informed shouldn't mean maintaining private email lists, chasing phone numbers, or wondering who saw an urgent update. Communitrak gives HOA and condo boards one place to reach everyone, a group, or an individual resident.

Messaging connects to your resident directory, bulletin board, violations, payments, and requests, so the right people receive the right updates without separate tools or contact lists to maintain.

Email, SMS, and Push for Every HOA Update

Use email for everyday updates, SMS for urgent alerts, and push notifications to keep app users informed.

  • Unlimited Email

    Send unlimited announcements to your community or selected groups. Residents can reply by email, with responses tracked in Communitrak.

  • SMS Alerts

    Put urgent notices where residents are likely to see them: on their phones. Five SMS batches are included each month.

  • Push Notifications

    Keep residents who install Communitrak up to date with instant alerts at no extra cost.

Targeted Email Without List Management

Choose an audience from the resident directory, write the update once, and send it without copying addresses between spreadsheets, inboxes, or group texts.

  • Reach the entire community, a group, or one resident
  • Send as yourself or on behalf of the association
  • Unlimited email messages included

Hi Margot, your card has been reset. Give it another try, and let us know if it still won't open.
