Plate-reading patrols.
Cameras on every vehicle. Reads every car as we drive by. Nothing missed.
Most vendors hand your board a login and wish you luck. Goldgar brings the people, the patrol cameras, the registration, the violations, the letters, and a real platform showing the board everything as it happens. Parking and property, handled.
Boards usually compare us to three kinds of vendor. Here are the names you already know, and exactly what each one leaves on the table.
A self-serve permit and guest portal.
No boots on the ground. They sell the board a login and stop. Nobody drives the community, nobody reads a plate, nobody writes a violation. The work still lands on you.
Patrol bolted onto a dated portal.
Two disconnected tools. Feet on the ground, but the platform is from another era and the data lives somewhere else. The patrol and the software never truly talk to each other.
A round-the-clock guard company.
Roughly $175k a year, and still no record. A single posted guard runs $16k to $20k a month, watches one gate, and keeps no resident database, no plate history, and no photo trail.
Most agencies still run on intuition and paper. Goldgar runs the same job with modern tools, and the difference shows up everywhere.
Goldgar is veteran owned and veteran run. We bring military discipline to enforcement. We are friendly to residents who follow the rules, and firm with those who do not. We are not afraid to enforce your bylaws, which is exactly what you hired us to do. Every action documented. Every word professional.
Any agency can put a patrol car on the street. These are the pieces that turn a patrol into a complete program.
Cameras on every vehicle. Reads every car as we drive by. Nothing missed.
Three or four photos, always, timestamped. Defensible when a resident disputes.
Driver license, lease, vehicle registration. Verified, not assumed.
Mark a plate. Get an alert the moment our cameras see it again.
No chasing. They land in the board inbox, generated for you.
Not just parking. Anything in your bylaws, by quote.
Boards usually pick from three categories. Here is what each one is, and exactly what each one is missing.
Companies like Parking Boss sell a portal, then tell you to go hire a separate patrol vendor. The board still does the work, and still pays $195 to $295 a month just for the login.
Vendors like OnCall Parking Manager have feet on the ground, but pricing is hidden, the platform is dated, and the model leans on towing instead of documentation.
A single stationary guard runs $16,000 to $20,000 a month. No resident database, no plate history, no photo record. Watching one gate while the rest of the community goes unseen.
This is the one thing none of the alternatives can match. Once your residents are registered, every plate that rolls through is one of three things: a registered resident, a safelisted guest, or an unauthorized vehicle. A software-only tool has no one driving it; a guard has no database; we have both. Here is the actual plate record your Goldgar team works from.
Every vehicle in your community gets a single, living file β registration, permits, and a complete enforcement timeline. Here is the actual record view your Goldgar team works from.

A stationary guard averages $16,000 to $20,000 a month. That is roughly $175,000 to $240,000 a year for one post. Goldgar's top service tier runs $1,000 per inspection, with up to 16 inspections a month. See the four tiers.
Guards have no resident database. They cannot tell whether a vehicle belongs there. Our system already knows every plate in the community.
One inspection that produces 50 photographed violations beats 24 hours of watching a single gate.
Residents pay for their own permits and guest passes. Boards choose how much of registration to comp, and registration cuts your inspection and service cost by 25%. The full breakdown lives on one clean page.

Two products, always separate: Registration (full permits or a virtual data-only record) and the Guest Parking App (a separate resident purchase, never bundled in). Plus the four inspection service tiers, board seats, and the 25% registration discount, all spelled out.
