Multifamily properties almost always have more parking than residents use at any given moment: visitor stalls, unassigned spaces, overflow lots. MintParking lets you sell that unused capacity by the hour or day to the surrounding neighborhood, creating a new income line for the property without affecting residents' assigned parking.
The problem today
- Visitor and overflow spaces sit empty most of the day.
- Outside cars use resident parking without paying anything.
- Property managers can't watch the lot around the clock.
- Residents complain about both shortages and freeloaders.
How MintParking helps
Protect resident spots

New parking revenue can offset common-area costs and dues without raising assessments.

Apartments & HOAs parking, answered
Can we keep resident parking separate?
Yes. You list only the specific spaces you want to monetize — typically visitor, overflow, or unassigned stalls — and assigned resident parking is never affected.
Does this require a vote or major change to our bylaws?
Most HOAs can authorize monetizing common-area parking through their normal board process. Because there's no construction, no equipment, and no contract, it's a low-risk, easily reversible decision.
How do residents and guests handle this?
Residents in assigned spots do nothing. Paid spaces show a QR sign; visitors and neighbors scan and pay on their phone — no app download required.
What's the cost to the association?
Nothing upfront and no monthly fee. MintParking keeps 8% plus 30¢ per session; the association keeps up to 92%.
