Everything PayHOA does — starting free.
PayHOA is a solid tool. But it has no free tier, its price climbs fast, and it gates features behind higher plans. Here's how Dwellra compares.
PayHOA pricing reflects its publicly listed plans as of 2026 and may change. Compare current pricing before you decide.

Frequently asked
Is Dwellra a PayHOA alternative?
Yes. Dwellra covers the same core self-managed HOA and condo needs — online dues, violations, architectural review, communications, and documents — with a genuine free tier, flat pricing, and no feature gating.
How is Dwellra's pricing different from PayHOA's?
PayHOA has no free tier and its price steps up with community size (about $54/mo at 25 homes to $186/mo at 200), with some features reserved for higher plans. Dwellra starts free, uses flat pricing, and includes every feature at every paid tier.
Does Dwellra support both HOAs and condos?
Yes — Dwellra models single-family HOAs and condominium associations, including share-based assessments for condos.
Can I switch to Dwellra from PayHOA?
Yes. You can upload your homeowner roster and set up dues, documents, and communications, and your records stay exportable and yours.
If you're outgrowing spreadsheets, both tools beat them. If you want a free start, flat pricing, and no feature gates, that's Dwellra.
