What Does the Verified Firm Badge Mean?

Next time you see a company with the "Verified Firm" badge, this means we matched their listing to an active community association management firm license in that state’s official records. For example, in Florida, we matched 1,162 listings to 2,047 active licenses. This badge provides added confidence that the firm is properly licensed and up to date according to the state.

Keep in mind that licensing requirements vary by state. To ensure compliance with all local regulations, confirm specifics with your association attorney or legal advisor.

Growing Coverage, Market by Market

Our directory’s coverage expands continuously. Larger markets tend to have more management companies listed and better depth of ratings and reviews to help boards make informed decisions.
