Market overview
HOA management in Massachusetts
Legal framework
The primary legal framework for Massachusetts community associations is M.G.L. Chapter 183A (the Condominium Act), which governs the creation, ownership, and operation of condominium associations. The statute requires each condominium to record a master deed and bylaws, establishes percentage-interest-based common expense assessments, grants associations a priority lien for up to six months of unpaid dues, and gives boards of trustees exclusive authority to conduct litigation concerning common areas. Section 11 specifically requires bylaws to address procedures for hiring personnel, with or without a manager, but neither Chapter 183A nor any other Massachusetts statute requires that manager to hold a state license or registration. Traditional single-family HOAs not organized as condominiums rely on their recorded covenants and general nonprofit corporation law (M.G.L. Chapter 180) rather than a dedicated planned-community act.
Manager licensing & oversight
Massachusetts does not license or register community association managers at the state level. There is no state exam, no continuing-education mandate, and no regulatory body overseeing HOA management firms or individual managers in their capacity as association managers. Boards evaluating management companies must therefore rely on voluntary professional credentials — such as the Certified Manager of Community Associations (CMCA) or Professional Community Association Manager (PCAM) designations from industry organizations — along with references, insurance documentation, and contract terms. This contrasts with states that have enacted mandatory licensing, and it is one reason that selecting a management firm requires particularly careful due diligence by Massachusetts boards.
Registry data vs. industry estimates
Our directory of 118 Massachusetts firms is compiled through independent research across publicly available industry records, professional-credential registries, and company websites. Because the state maintains no HOA or condominium management registry, this count captures firms that are publicly active and identifiable through those channels; the full universe of companies providing management services in Massachusetts is likely larger. The CAI Foundation's figure of 11,230 community associations represents all registered and operating associations of record as of the 2021–2022 survey period — a macro-level estimate that includes associations of every size across all community types statewide.
