Audit Services
Independent Examination.
Trusted Support.
Real Value.

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all audits. Every step is tailored to your community’s unique needs. We take the time to understand your association’s structure and challenges, knowing that factors such as size, type, location, or level of board involvement make every audit different.

The Result?

An audit experience that’s efficient, insightful, and surprisingly collaborative.

Whether we’re working with your management company or reporting to your board, our approach is thoughtful, responsive, and designed to support everyone involved.

For Boards: Strengthening Oversight. Supporting Your Role

As a board member, you have a fiduciary responsibility to your community, and an audit is one of many tools at your disposal to fulfill that duty. We view the board as not just a client, but as a partner. Our role is to provide independent assurance and clear, accessible guidance that may include:

  • Identifying areas for stronger internal controls or improved transparency.
  • Offering operational recommendations aligned with best practices in the industry.
  • Providing clarity for informed board decisions.

Working with Strauss & Associates, you’ll receive more than just an audit report; you’ll gain a better understanding of your association’s finances and the confidence that comes from having a trusted expert on your side.

For Management Companies: Making the Audit Process Work for You

We understand the challenges of managing the day-to-day operations of multiple associations. That’s why we make it our job to make your job easier during the audit. Our team is accessible, flexible, and proactive. We know the cadence of audit season, and we work closely with you to:

  • Minimize disruption to your daily workflow.
  • Communicate clearly and proactively.
  • Offer support and guidance at every step of the way.

Because we specialize in community associations, we’re familiar with the systems you use and the everyday challenges you face. We’re available year-round to provide support and guidance on the industry’s best practices. We’re here to work with you, not around you, to make sure the audit is smooth, collaborative, and value driven.
