For volunteer boards · Self-managed neighborhoods
A ridiculously simple neighborhood hub — dues, meetings, and home requests — for boards that run themselves. Not a property-management suite. Not a collection portal.
Free to start · $29/mo for the whole HOA · Board brief for colleagues →
I spent five years as treasurer of a 46-home HOA in Ijamsville, MD. On day one I was handed two cardboard boxes — fifteen years of dues and budgets, none of it digital. Blocbear is what I built so the next volunteer inherits a system, not more paper.

Enterprise HOA platforms assume a management company. Blocbear assumes neighbors and unpaid officers.
Built for boards that run the neighborhood themselves — unpaid treasurers, presidents, and secretaries, not enterprise management companies.
ACH and optional Auto Pay when neighbors want them, plus checks the board can log in one click. Reminders without the spreadsheet chase.
Poll neighbors for a meeting date. The winning date lands on the calendar so everyone stops digging through old threads.
Exterior changes and courtesy notices in plain English — not ARC jargon or a scary portal login.
Search public records — your bloc is probably already in the database.
Link the HOA operating account through Plaid to verify you’re on the board.
Upload a roster, send invites, and residents claim their home from a secure email link.
No per-door fees. No setup invoice. Cancel anytime.
Same price for 10 homes or 500. The HOA pays one Blocbear subscription.
Online ACH: residents cover a 1.25% processing fee so the HOA receives 100% of dues. Checks stay free of Blocbear processing fees.

Residents get dues status, meeting dates, and home requests in one place. Paying dues is a chore, not the headline — Blocbear is a community hub for the whole neighborhood.
No. Blocbear is for self-managed HOAs run by volunteer boards. If you already pay a management company for a full suite, this probably isn’t your tool.
Nope. $29/mo whether you have 10 homes or 500. Same features, same price.
Absolutely. The board logs checks with one click. Online ACH is optional for neighbors who want it.
Bank connections use Plaid. Blocbear never stores bank login credentials. Details live on our security page.
