Switch & Keep

Switching HOA management software? We move every association for you.

We handle the whole move. We migrate full history for every association you manage: owner ledgers, assessments, collections status, violations and fund accounting. Your managers keep managing while we do it.

Audio call. Built for management companies moving many associations at once, and for self-managed boards.

Why switching feels impossible

A typical import brings over homeowners and an opening balance for each one. The payment history behind that balance, where each account sits in collections, open violations, architectural requests, and the split between operating and reserve funds often stay behind. Multiply that by every association in your portfolio, and switching looks like months of your staff's time. That's why so many management companies stay on software they've outgrown.

What moves

We get the data out ourselves, through your software's API where it has one, or its built-in reports. Your part is approving access.

How it works

  1. Switch plan (free)

    A 20-minute call about your platforms, how many associations, and how many years of history you need. You leave knowing what moves, how long it takes, and roughly what it costs.
  2. Data assessment

    We map one or two of your associations end to end, flag gaps and bad data, and give you a fixed quote per association for the rest of the portfolio.
  3. Migration in waves

    We move associations in batches on a schedule that fits your fiscal year ends, so your staff isn't converting everything at once.
  4. Reconciliation and archive

    Each association gets a reconciliation report you can hand to its board, and the old system goes into a searchable, read-only archive.

The penny guarantee

Every association gets a reconciliation report before cutover: owner balances, fund balances and bank balances, old system against new. If anything we migrated doesn't tie out, we keep working at no charge until it does.

Questions

Doesn't the new vendor handle conversion?

Most convert homeowners and opening balances. We move the history behind those balances and prove they match, association by association.

How much of our staff's time does this take?

One person approves access, answers a few questions, and signs off on each association's reconciliation report. We do the extraction, mapping, loading and cleanup.

Can you work around our fiscal year ends?

Yes. Moving in waves lets each association cut over at a clean point, usually a month or year end.

Do we need a developer or any technical work?

No. We get the data out ourselves, through your software's API where it has one, or its built-in reports. You approve access. That's it.

Can't we just export everything and clean it up ourselves?

Getting data out is the easy part. The hard part is getting years of history into the new system for every association, since most imports only accept current owners and opening balances. Then every owner, fund and bank balance has to match the old system to the penny. That reconciliation, and fixing whatever doesn't match, is the work you're paying for.

How do you handle our data?

Encrypted in transit and at rest, access limited to the people doing your migration, and deleted on the schedule you choose. The archive is yours.

Who are you?

Switch & Keep is a small, independent team that does one thing: moving records between property and HOA platforms with the history intact. We don't resell any software.
