Virginia HOA services — questions, answered

Which statute governs HOAs in Virginia?+
Virginia Property Owners’ Association Act, Va. Code § 55.1-1800 et seq.. Governs POA disclosure, governance, assessments, and enforcement. Condominiums are covered separately by Virginia Condominium Act, Va. Code § 55.1-1900 et seq.. Your own declaration and bylaws sit on top of it and may be stricter.
Are there reserve or bidding rules Virginia boards need to know?+
Va. Code § 55.1-1826: Requires associations to conduct a reserve study at least every five years and to review reserve funding annually.
Who licenses the contractors an association hires in Virginia?+
Virginia Board for Contractors, Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation — Class A, B, and C contractor licensing plus specialty designations. Every vendor’s insurance and trade credentials are collected, verified, and stored with their expiry dates, and held to a stated renewal window — 30 days for insurance, none for a competency certification. Once that window closes, the vendor cannot bid for or be awarded new work until it is current again.
Who regulates community pools in Virginia?+
Virginia Department of Health and local health districts — public swimming pool permitting, operation, and inspection. That is why pool scope on HOAcrew includes water-quality records and operator credentials, not just cleaning visits.
Is HOAcrew available here?+
Available to communities nationwide. Bring your own vendors anywhere; our vetted network is growing market by market.
Do you have vendors near me?+
Two ways it works. Invite the vendors you already use — they get credentialed and onboarded here, anywhere in the US. And where our vetted network has reached, additional vetted vendors can submit proposals too. Our network is growing market by market, so bringing your own vendor is always the fastest path.
