House management is often entrusted to a management company, but managers’ unjustified costs for house maintenance, invoices for undone work, force owners to look for other solutions for effective house management. Apartment owners do not have to suffer and live in peace with an irresponsible house manager. Latvian laws require apartment owners to change the house manager by mutual agreement. The apartment owners' society is a voluntary association of apartment owners that takes care of the maintenance of their apartment buildings by signing a contract with the house manager and manager and paying a membership fee money in a savings fund, which is used when there is a need to do house repairs or any repairs, for example, sewer pipes are broken, etc. As a result of the research, it is concluded that, in general, the owners of the house and the people living in it are satisfied with the work of the Union of Apartment Owners “X”, but they want more participation, which is possible only from the owner himself, by participating in various meetings.
