Taylor Management Company

What Taylor Management Company does

Taylor Management Company is a privately held, full-service property management company headquartered in Whippany, New Jersey, that has been operating for over 25 years serving homeowners associations (HOAs) and condominium owner associations (COAs). The company manages 320+ community associations across New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania via five regional offices (Whippany, Somerset, Spring Lake, NJ Gold Coast, and New York, with Pennsylvania coverage) and a sales-led go-to-market targeting community association board members and homeowners directly. Its core service platform is organized into four divisions: Community Management (on-site operations, vendor oversight, board administration), Financial Management (billing, collections, accounts payable, bank reconciliation, budgeting, reserve studies), Lifestyle Management (resident programming, events, fitness, common interest groups, a VIVE & THRIVE vendor directory), and Community Technology.

The technology stack is anchored by CINC Systems, described by the company as the leading national platform for HOAs and COAs, providing resident portals, board dashboards, work orders, violation management, architectural requests, online voting, and mobile access. Supporting integrations include Avid Strongroom for board invoice approval, Western Alliance Bank for integrated payment processing (e-check, credit card at 3.5%, debit card at $5 flat), VendorSmart for vendor compliance verification, Community Archives for resale disclosure documents, and Vineyard Transition for 60-day pre-contract onboarding workflows. The company holds AAMC accreditation from the Community Associations Institute (CAI) and AMO accreditation from the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM).

Taylor Management generates revenue primarily through recurring management contracts with community associations, supplemented by transaction fees from payment processing (3.5% credit card, $5 debit card) and resale document services. Pricing is quote-based rather than publicly disclosed. The company layers adjacent service lines onto the core management contract, including Developer Transitions for new community handovers and Custom Service Contracts (a la carte) for self-managed associations and larger staffed communities, expanding its addressable market beyond traditional full-service management. Distribution is regional and direct, supported by educational content marketing (articles, public and client-only webinars) and active CAI involvement. The corporate entity is Associations, Inc., and the firm has a non-profit affiliate, Taylor Gives Back. No venture capital or private equity backing is disclosed, and operations are self-funded.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Sentry Management: Established community association management company managing hundreds of HOAs and condominiums across the U.S. Comparable service portfolio (community, financial, and lifestyle management) and customer segment (HOA/COA boards), but with broader geographic presence than Taylor.
• Associa: National community association management leader managing thousands of HOAs, condos, and co-ops. Directly comparable service offering (community, financial, lifestyle, and technology management) but with national scale that contrasts with Taylor's regional Northeast focus.
• FirstService Residential: Largest residential property manager in North America managing thousands of HOA and condominium communities. Comparable because it offers the same core community management, financial management, and resident technology services Taylor provides, but at vastly greater scale and broader geographic reach.

Direct peers

• RealManage: Technology-enabled community association management company serving HOAs and condominiums across multiple states. Comparable because it combines the same integrated technology platform approach (own proprietary software) with full-service management — a more scaled version of Taylor's CINC-based model.
• CAMS (Community Association Management Services): Regional community association management company serving HOAs and condominiums with full-service management. Closest comparable to Taylor in terms of service breadth, target customer (HOA/COA boards), and multi-state regional operating model.
• Vesta Management: Regional property and community association manager serving HOAs and condominiums with technology-enabled operations. Comparable in service offering, technology-driven approach, and regional mid-market positioning relative to Taylor.
• Heritage Property Management: Mid-sized community association management company serving HOAs and condominiums. Comparable in offering (full-service management, financial services, board support) and mid-market customer profile similar to Taylor.

Regional players

• Keystone Pacific Property Management: Regional community association manager focused primarily on master-planned communities in the Western U.S. Comparable in core HOA/COA management services, but geographically non-overlapping with Taylor's Northeast footprint.

Others

• AppFolio (HOA/Community Association module): Cloud-based property management software platform with a dedicated HOA/community association offering. Not a direct management services peer but an enabling technology platform whose product direction shapes what HOA managers like Taylor can deliver and at what cost.
• CINC Systems: Taylor's primary technology platform partner and the largest SaaS provider specifically built for HOA and COA management. Comparable as an ecosystem partner — competing proptech providers (e.g., AppFolio, Buildium) represent alternative technology stacks, and CINC's own community manager customers are adjacent competitors to Taylor.
