Republic Act No. 8763 (March 7, 2000) transferred the powers of the Home Guaranty Corporation (HGC) over concerned Homeowners Association (HOAs) to HLURB. The Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board (HLURB) is government's regulatory body for housing and land development.
In homeowners association cases, the Complaint shall be filed in the RAB which has jurisdiction over the region where the association is registered with the DHSUD. (Rule 2, Section 7, Rules of Procedure of the Human Settlements Adjudication Commission).
— Every association of homeowners shall be required to register with the HLURB. This registration shall serve to grant juridical personality to all such associations that have not previously acquired the same by operation of the General Corporation Law or by any other general law.
In Texas, all homeowners' associations are governed by the Texas Residential Property Owners Protection Act. This document lists out all the rules and regulations that all HOAs must follow.
SECTION 37. Association officers - Unless otherwise provided in the by-laws, an Association should have the following executive officers who shall be responsible for the management of the Association's business: president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and auditor.
There is no Texas state agency that oversees property owners' associations. Talking to the board or checking the association's rules can sometimes resolve misunderstandings and disagreements. The association's governing documents will often provide a way to submit a complaint directly to the association.
REGISTRATION OF HOMEOWNERS' ASSOCIATION As far as practicable, only one (1) homeowners' association shall be established and registered with Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board (HLURB) in each subdivision. It is mandatory for all associations to register solely with the HLURB.
Disclosure Requirements Disclosure is mandated by law, often through public records and real property records. Before purchasing a home, buyers must receive a set of documents detailing the HOA's health, such as its covenants, conditions, restrictions, bylaws, rules, and financial statements.
