CONDO ASSOCIATIONS & HOA ADVISORY

Clarity for Your Board.
Value for Your Community.

Independent advisory and advocacy for everyone in the association—helping boards, trustees, and communities navigate challenges of running an association

Who We Serve

Whatever state your board is in, there's a version of Ascent that meets you there.

We review the infrastructure you already have — your budget, your reserves, your vendors, your documents — and build on it to optimize the output. We don't replace what's working; we make it work harder.

You're not sure what you're holding

Bylaws you've never read cover to cover, a reserve study that doesn't match what you see outside, a management company whose invoices you can't quite verify. You're making decisions without being able to see the whole picture.

The board has become a second job

You have a career, a family, and a growing list of bids to collect, invoices to question, and milestones to confirm. The work didn't get harder — it just stopped fitting into the evenings you have.

Things work. You know they could work better

Your community is on solid ground, and that's exactly why you'd rather plan ahead than react later. You want a five-year picture, a defensible budget, and a standard your vendors are held to.

The stakes are real: reserve requirements are tightening under federal lending guidelines, and an unprepared board can put its community's mortgage eligibility — and property values — at risk. We get you ahead of it.

Advisory covers executive board support, five-year capital and reserve planning, operational budgeting, bylaw compliance, capital project procurement and oversight, and management performance audits. See all services · View pricing

Who Works With Us

Dianna J. Bill, Founder of Ascent Board Advisory

Dianna J. Bill

Founder

Meet Dianna

You work directly with the founder — a finance-trained, management-tested advisor who treats your community's budget like her own.

Finance-Trained, Management-Tested

Five years as a financial analyst, then five years managing commercial office buildings — budgeting the whole property, servicing its equipment through vendors, and answering to its owners. That's the same discipline an association board needs, applied with an analyst's eye.

Bids, Contracts & Scope

Multi-million dollar projects bid to contractors, bids leveled side by side, vendor price increases negotiated, and scope held on time and on budget.

Engage

The next chapter of your community's success begins with a conversation.
