Many volunteer boards try Facebook first.
Here’s why email-based listserv systems often work better.
Accessibility
- Not every homeowner uses Facebook.
- Everyone uses email.
Privacy
- Facebook groups can expose personal data and allow non-residents to request access.
- Email systems remain private and controlled.
Searchability
- Facebook threads get buried.
- A listserv keeps organized, searchable communication records.
Professionalism
- Email-based systems feel official and appropriate for governance.
- Facebook often feels informal.
