From planning to turnover
Every project leaves its future association with a different set of responsibilities. We help you identify those obligations, prepare for their cost and organize the work needed to serve the first owners and the boards that follow.
Bring the association into the planning conversation while choices are still being made. We help identify future operating needs, common-area maintenance responsibilities, vendor requirements and the administrative work that follows the first closing.
We work with your attorney to connect the declaration, bylaws and initial policies to how the community will operate. Our input focuses on maintenance responsibilities, practical administration and budget assumptions, including different uses or phases. Your counsel handles legal drafting and advice.
Build an initial operating budget around the community’s actual obligations: insurance, utilities, grounds, amenities, management and reserves. We help plan assessment levels and changing costs as units close and additional phases or common areas come into service.
We coordinate with an independent reserve-study professional, organize available plans and component information, and help connect the findings to the association’s budget and reserve planning. The qualified professional prepares the study; the developer commissions and pays for it where required.
Prepare the administrative foundation for the first owners: organized records, association accounting and banking setup support, assessment billing, vendor coordination and owner communications. The agreed scope sets out what needs to be ready, who is responsible and when.
Plan for turnover from the beginning. We organize association records, financial information, contracts and open items for the handoff, coordinate with the appropriate specialists, and help orient the incoming owner board to its responsibilities and priorities.
Colorado reserve-study requirements
HB26-1099 took effect August 12, 2026. It requires declarants of covered planned communities and condominiums to commission and pay for an independent reserve study before transferring control to the association. The study must project costs over 30 years for common elements and property the association is responsible for maintaining, repairing or replacing.

Bring reserve findings into budget discussions alongside the declaration’s maintenance responsibilities and the development schedule.
Keep the completed study organized with the association’s turnover records. Project-specific applicability and legal requirements are reviewed with counsel.
A clear working relationship
Developer consulting and ongoing association management serve different clients at different stages. We define each scope and agreement separately, so the project team and future association know what support they are receiving.
A defined engagement for planning, formation support, startup and turnover preparation, aligned to the project’s stage and priorities.
If ongoing management is a fit, the association can engage OmniHOA under a separate agreement for its day-to-day administration, financial reporting, communications and vendor coordination.
We coordinate operational work with counsel and qualified professionals. Legal advice, reserve-study preparation, audits and tax services are provided by the appropriate specialists.
Plan for the association’s everyday work
Our redacted management reports show how we document financial activity, open issues and follow-through for existing associations. They offer a look at the operating records a new community will need as it grows.

While the governing documents, maintenance responsibilities and first budget are still being developed. Early involvement lets the operating plan inform those decisions. If the project is already underway, we can start with its current stage and the association work still to be done.
Yes. Developer consulting can be scoped as its own engagement. Ongoing association management is considered separately based on the community’s needs, coverage and fit.
We provide operational input and coordinate the work. Your attorney provides legal drafting and advice. An independent qualified professional conducts the reserve study. Audit and tax work also belong with the appropriate professionals.
We begin with a conversation about the project, development stage and priorities. From there, we propose a defined consulting scope, responsibilities, schedule and fees. Project-specific work begins under an agreed engagement; third-party professional costs are identified separately.
We consider planned communities, condominium projects and mixed-use developments with an association component. Our current management footprint centers on Eagle County, the Vail Valley and Western Slope. Consulting and on-site needs elsewhere in Colorado are evaluated for fit and coverage.
Bring the project’s location, planned uses, development stage and the association questions you’re working through. We’ll discuss where support would be useful and agree on next steps.
