8. Be reasonable about fines.
"Fines need to be commensurate with the violation. A reasonable fine for
improper storage of personal items on balconies is $25. A reasonable fine for
replacing a window without architectural control is not anywhere near $25."

9. Provide inspection data.
"Include photos and inspection details with the violation so that the
homeowner is provided with as much information as possible. This can help
them remedy the situation and avoid future violations. Be clear as to what
you're asking them to correct, and be sure to provide document or covenant
language for reference."

Don't forget to follow up.
