Who decides
Roof replacements at apartment communities are capital projects approved by the owner, usually managed by the management company's asset or construction team. HOA roofs (condos and townhomes) go through the board and its manager.
Where to focus
Filter by year built and building size, and check the owner on record: owners that hold many properties plan capital work across the portfolio.
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
Spring hail season drives insurance work; planned replacements are budgeted in Q4.
