We score
Every building gets a Stink Score, measured against similar buildings nearby. Are your fees high? Are reserves thin? Is an assessment coming?
We remove owner names, unit numbers and other personal details before anything is posted.
The Stink Score
Is your HOA a sweet ass or a smelly ass?
We score every building from 0 to 100 against similar buildings nearby. Higher stinks more.
Sweet Ass
Fair fees, healthy reserves, a board that shares its paperwork.
Sweaty Ass
Something's brewing. Read the minutes before you sign anything.
Smelly Ass
High fees, thin reserves, warning signs everywhere. Hold your nose and your wallet.
Why it stinks
- Reserve fund at 31% of what the reserve study recommends
- Fees up 22% in three years, double the increase at similar buildings
- Building envelope report commissioned in the March minutes
Every reason points to the page it came from.
