The rules where you are

What governs a North Dakota association

Every link below goes to the source, not to us. Read it yourself before you rely on it.

The state’s common-interest statute; planned communities otherwise rely on the recorded declaration.

Read the code text

Contractor licensing

Contractor licensing by class for work above statutory dollar thresholds.

Visit the authority

Pool regulation

North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services

Public swimming pool licensing and inspection.

This is a starting point, not legal advice. Statutes are amended, and your declaration and bylaws may impose stricter requirements than the state does — verify against the current code and your association’s counsel before acting.

The season here

What the year looks like

Severe winters make snow removal the defining contracted service, and the growing season is brief and intense. Freeze-thaw damage to pavement and drainage is the recurring capital theme.

North Dakota HOA services — questions, answered

Which statute governs HOAs in North Dakota?+
North Dakota Condominium Ownership Act, N.D.C.C. Ch. 47-04.1. The state’s common-interest statute; planned communities otherwise rely on the recorded declaration. Your own declaration and bylaws sit on top of it and may be stricter.
Does North Dakota set reserve or competitive-bidding requirements?+
Read North Dakota Condominium Ownership Act, N.D.C.C. Ch. 47-04.1 alongside your declaration, bylaws, and any lender or insurer requirements — each of those can impose reserve funding or competitive bidding on your association, and statutes change. Confirm what applies to North Dakota communities, and to yours specifically, with counsel.
Who licenses the contractors an association hires in North Dakota?+
North Dakota Secretary of State — contractor licensing by class for work above statutory dollar thresholds. Every vendor’s insurance and trade credentials are collected, verified, and stored with their expiry dates, and held to a stated renewal window — 30 days for insurance, none for a competency certification. Once that window closes, the vendor cannot bid for or be awarded new work until it is current again.
Who regulates community pools in North Dakota?+
North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services — public swimming pool licensing and inspection. That is why pool scope on HOAcrew includes water-quality records and operator credentials, not just cleaning visits.
Is HOAcrew available here?+
Available to communities nationwide. Bring your own vendors anywhere; our vetted network is growing market by market.
Do you have vendors near me?+
Two ways it works. Invite the vendors you already use — they get credentialed and onboarded here, anywhere in the US. And where our vetted network has reached, additional vetted vendors can submit proposals too. Our network is growing market by market, so bringing your own vendor is always the fastest path.
