6. WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON'T PAY MY HOA FEES OR IF I BREAK THE RULES?
Most homeowners enjoy the protections that an HOA provides their home and community.
Every association is run a little differently, but most of the time, any late payment or violation
receives a polite reminder delivered via email, in-person, or by mail. Nearly all violations are
resolved at this level and you may receive several warnings before further action is taken.
7. HOW DO HOA BOARDS ENFORCE THE RULES?
HOAs will outline an escalation process for continued non-payments or violations. Communication
is key, and chances are your HOA will work with you to resolve any issues that arise. In extreme
cases, an HOA may have to take legal action against owners who continue to violate community
guidelines and place a lien on their property until issues are fully resolved.
