3 Bids, 1 Job: The Smarter Way to Land Big HOA Projects

How to Land Big HOA and Condo Dryer Vent Cleaning Projects Without Competing on Price

Here is the truth. HOA boards and property managers do not want the cheapest contractor. They want the safest choice. The contractor who makes them look smart in front of hundreds of unit owners.

So if you are showing up with just one price, you are playing the wrong game. That is what amateurs do.

The pros use what I call The 6 Year Advantage.

The Strategy

Instead of one number, you give them three options:

  1. Option One – Highest price. One time service. No contract.

  2. Option Two – Reduced price. Service every other year. Locked for six years.

  3. Option Three – Lowest price you would ever take. Annual service. Locked for six years.

Why It Works

HOA boards love choices. But here is the psychology. Most will land on the middle option. It feels safe. Not overpaying. Not cheaping out. That means you land the deal above your bottom line without having to push them there.

And here is the kicker. Even if they pick the lowest option, you still win because it locks them into six years of guaranteed work. No rebids. No chasing down renewals. No uncertainty.

The Payoff

This is not about submitting bids. It is about setting the frame. You are no longer the contractor begging to win a one off job. You are the long term partner who understands how HOAs think.

And that is exactly who they want to vote in.
