For condo sellers going FSBO

Buyers ghost condo listings because they're scared of the HOA.

Upload your HOA documents. Our system extracts every number, rule, and risk flag — and a human reviewer verifies every cheat sheet before it ships. Free. Back in your inbox in 3–5 business days.

What buyers actually want to know — and what your listing isn't answering.

What does the HOA fee actually cover?

We pull it from the budget and translate it into plain English.

Is there a special assessment coming?

We flag every recent and pending assessment from the minutes.

How healthy is the reserve fund?

We benchmark it against the building's age and unit count.

Can I have a dog? Sublet? Short-term rent?

We surface the pet, sublet, and rental rules from the bylaws.

Is the building insured? Any open litigation?

We pull insurance coverage and flag legal disputes if mentioned.

Was there a recent milestone inspection?

If your state requires it, we check the date and status.

Condo buyers care more about HOA fees, building financial health, special assessments, pet policy, and parking than single-family-home buyers do — but standard MLS fields surface almost none of it. The cheat sheet is the answer sheet.

What you actually get

One page. The questions buyers ask, answered before they ask them.

We pull every number from the budget, every rule from the bylaws, every flag from the last six months of board minutes. You get a branded one-pager you can attach to every listing, every showing, and every buyer-agent inquiry.

Risk legend — green / yellow / red so a buyer agent can read it in 10 seconds
QR back to your listing — a buyer scans, lands on your single-property page
Footer disclaimer — informational only, not a substitute for due diligence

Honest answers.

Is this really free?: Yes. The 1-page cheat sheet is free, no credit card. We make money later if you decide to use the rest of our FSBO toolkit.
Who built this?: A condo seller currently selling his own unit FSBO. Everything you see here is being used on his actual listing first.
How fast do I get the cheat sheet?: 3–5 business days. Our pipeline handles the extraction and a human reviewer verifies every cheat sheet before we send it. We're not pretending it's instant — the verification step is what makes the summary trustworthy.
What happens to my HOA pack and email?: The PDF is used to generate your cheat sheet and nothing else — we don't sell it, share it with marketers, buyer agents, or brokers, post it anywhere public, or use it to train models. Your email is used to deliver the cheat sheet and one short follow-up; you can email us to delete either at any time.
What if my HOA pack is messy or scanned?: We try our best. If the PDF is scanned, we OCR it. If something is missing, we tell you — better to know now than after a buyer asks.
Is the cheat sheet a legal disclosure?: No. It's a marketing summary. It does not replace your seller's disclosure, the buyer's attorney review, or the buyer's own due diligence — and it says so on the footer.
Can I list on the MLS through you?: Not today. We pair with flat-fee MLS brokers — we'll point you to one in your state when you ask. The cheat sheet works alongside any listing channel.
What about co-ops?: Co-ops have a different doc set (board package, financials, board interview prep). We're working on a co-op-specific version — tell us if that's you.
