Violation letters with photo evidence for HOA managers

B2BWebweekendNext.jsSupabasePDF generation

The idea

An HOA manager running ten associations sends dozens of violation notices a month, each drafted by hand in Word, each needing the right CC&R citation, the right escalation step, and the right cure deadline, because a notice that skips a step or misquotes the clause gets thrown out in a dispute. Full HOA suites do this, but they cost a dollar-plus per door per month across everything, and the manager only wants the enforcement piece.

The wedge is the escalation engine: each association’s notice sequence encoded once, then every violation marches through it automatically with photos attached and deadlines tracked. The manager stops being a mail-merge operator and starts working a queue.

Who pays

The management company pays 49 dollars a month flat, unlimited associations, which is a rounding error against one avoided dispute or one recovered fine. The buyer is the portfolio manager or the small management company owner, both easy to reach through CAI chapter events, HOA management Facebook groups, and communities where managers trade Word templates today. The monthly board report doubles as marketing: boards see the tool’s name on clean enforcement summaries.

Build CureNotice, a violation management app for HOA property managers. Stack: Next.js (App Router), Supabase (auth, Postgres, storage), react-pdf or Puppeteer for PDF generation.

Core flow: a manager sets up each association they manage with its properties (address list via CSV import), its CC&R clause library (clause number, title, standard description), and its escalation policy (e.g. courtesy notice, first notice with 14-day cure, final notice with fine amount, hearing referral). To log a violation: pick association, pick property, pick CC&R clause, attach one or more photos from phone or desktop, add a note. The app generates the correct letter for that violation's current escalation step as a PDF: association letterhead, owner address, clause text, cure deadline computed from the policy, and embedded photos with capture dates. Each violation tracks its own clock; when a cure deadline passes unresolved, it surfaces in a queue with a one-click escalate action that generates the next letter.

Pages: /dashboard (deadline queue across all associations, sorted by overdue first), /associations/[id] (settings, clauses, policy), /violations/new (mobile-friendly entry form), /violations/[id] (timeline of letters sent, photos, resolve/escalate buttons), /reports (per-association monthly summary for board packets).

Implementation details: letters are immutable once generated and stored with a hash, so the paper trail survives disputes; the cure-deadline calculator must skip to the next business day and respect a per-association minimum notice period.

Pricing: 49 dollars/month flat, unlimited associations. Magic-link auth.
