Who decides
HOA landscaping contracts are usually bid by the association's management company and approved by the board. Apartment landscaping is contracted per property or across a manager's regional portfolio.
Where to focus
HOA management certificates name the management company for each association, so one relationship with a manager reaches every HOA it runs in your area.
Vendor approval
Large management companies usually require a credentialing service, insurance certificates and a W-9 before a first job. See requirements for the top Texas managers.
Timing
Many HOA contracts renew with the association's fiscal year; boards often take bids in the fall for January starts.
