The Challenge

Desert Vista launched in 2020 with a bold vision: HOAs don’t have to be a four-letter word. From day one, co-founders Michael and Laura LaPointe knew they needed enterprise-grade technology to compete with national firms while keeping their company lean and client-focused. With Vantaca as their foundation, Desert Vista has scaled from zero to nearly 6,000 doors in just three years — all while building a culture of quality, trust, and retention. 

 

Key Challenges Included:

  • Competing with national players from day one
  • The need to scale fast without 1:1 headcount increases
  • Freeing managers from admin work to focus on boards and homeowners
  • Building positive homeowner experiences that go beyond industry norms 

The Results: 

  • Startup to Scale: From zero to 6,000 doors with a lean team of seven
  • Efficient Operations: Invoice processing time cut by 60% in the last year
  • Healthier Cash Flow: Collections resolution improved by 30% in the last year
  • Stronger Transparency: 100% of financials delivered on time, every period
  • Seamless Payments: Nearly $1M in homeowner assessments processed in a single month via Vantaca Pay, generating new revenue
  • Differentiated Service: Workflows like Architectural Completion Assurance and Beautiful Property Notices delight boards and homeowners
