Stevens & Goldwyn, P.A. Discuss Life Living in an HOA

Stevens & Goldwyn, P.A. discuss why living in an HOA can be of enormous benefit to residents.

The condos and houses in an HOA are generally more sophisticated and better managed than non-HOA residences, but owners who choose to live in an HOA must be ready to comply with the bylaws. By following the HOA laws while living in the community, residents will not incur fines. 

Living in an HOA requires the following of several rules. These rules are designed to maintain order in the community as well as to protect the property value of the residences. Residents that are new to the community may not fully be aware of all the commitments an HOA requires. Some communities stipulate the size or weigh of a pet, while others require uniformity in paint colors and lawn requirements. 

So, buyers must complete adequate research before moving into an HOA-managed residential community. This includes reviewing the association's bylaws thoroughly and even asking members of the community to clarify any misunderstandings.

Before making a purchase, all prospective owners must review all of the rules and guidelines so that they will not have problems later on. If there are some rules that they are supposed to follow but were not mentioned in the documents, they must ask for clarification. The HOA's homeowners association attorney can assist owner's in understanding the bylaws if necessary.
