Hughes Properties

What Hughes Properties does

Hughes Properties II, LLC is a community association management company headquartered at 4910 Corporate Drive, Suite C, Huntsville, Alabama, serving homeowner associations (HOAs) across Madison and Limestone Counties in North Alabama. Founded in 1998 by Betty Hughes as Hughes Properties, Inc., the firm was reorganized in 2022 under new owner Marion Myers following the founder's retirement. The company manages approximately 75-80+ HOA communities, with named clients including Stonemark Property Owners Association, Clift's Cove HOA (298 properties), Heritage Plantation, Bell Tower Townhomes, Magnolia Springs HOA, McMullen Cove OA, The Preserve on the Flint, and Fairway Hills Condominium.

The company delivers two core service tiers, Full Service HOA Management and Financial Service Only, both billed on monthly subscription cadences. Full service covers day-to-day operations, financial management, covenant enforcement, monthly compliance tours, ARC submission handling, vendor coordination, board meeting attendance, and monthly reporting. The financial-only tier focuses on assessment collection, invoice processing, bank reconciliation, and monthly financial reporting. Add-on services include HOAst online voting, closing documents and resale certifications, notary services, FinCEN filing assistance, and EIN application support for new HOAs. The operational backbone is the third-party CINC management platform, which provides homeowner/board portals, violation recording, ARC tracking, and online payment processing. Hughes Properties extended this with a proprietary mobile app (Hughes Properties II App) launched in March 2023.

The go-to-market is direct sales to HOA boards, supplemented by a free proposal request form on the company website, referrals from HOA attorneys and existing board members, and active engagement with the Community Association Institute (CAI) Alabama chapter and the Athens-Limestone Chamber of Commerce. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Revenue is primarily recurring subscription, with transaction fees on closing documents and ancillary fees on notary, FinCEN, and EIN services. The company is privately held, owner-operated, with no external funding, acquisitions, or parent company relationships, and operates from a single office with a small team of certified Community Association Managers (CMCA, AMS, PCAM).

Broad incumbents

• FirstService Residential: Largest residential property/HOA manager in North America. Operates nationally with deep resources, technology, and scale — represents the competitive ceiling and a potential roll-up acquirer for regional operators like Hughes Properties.
• RealManage: Technology-enabled community association management company serving HOAs, condos, and co-ops across multiple U.S. states. Comparable full-service offering (financial, compliance, board support) and a likely consolidator of independent regional operators.
• Vesta Property Services: Multi-state property and HOA management company providing community association management, financial, and lifestyle services. Comparable service stack and a growing acquirer of independent managers in the Southeast.
• Capital Consultants Management Corp (CCMC): National community association management company serving hundreds of HOAs across the U.S. Offers full-service management similar to Hughes and is a relevant competitive benchmark for technology adoption and scale economics.
• Associa: National HOA and community association management leader serving thousands of communities across the U.S. Directly competes for HOA contracts in secondary markets and represents an alternative exit/acquirer for regional managers.

Others

• CINC Systems: Vendor of the HOA management software platform that Hughes Properties uses as its core operating system. Adjacent ecosystem participant — not a competitor but a critical technology partner whose product roadmap directly shapes Hughes' service delivery.

Direct peers

• Sentry Management: Established community association management firm with a strong regional footprint in the Southeast. Offers comparable full-service HOA management, financial services, and board support — directly competitive for HOA board RFPs in adjacent Alabama/Tennessee markets.
• Community Management Corporation: Independent community association management firm of comparable size and service offering to Hughes Properties, typically serving a single metro/region. Closest scale and business model analog for evaluating Hughes' unit economics and growth runway.

Regional players

• Ardent Residential: Regional community management firm serving HOAs and condominiums in the Southeastern U.S. Comparable scope of services (financial management, compliance, board support) and similar target customer profile — relevant peer for competitive benchmarking.
• Accredited Management Group: Independent HOA and condominium management firm operating in neighboring Southeastern states. Comparable scale and service mix to Hughes — relevant for benchmarking growth paths and as a likely M&A counterparty if Hughes pursues exit or geographic expansion.
