FAQ

In Massachusetts, homeowners' associations, also called HOAs, are not governed by a particular law in the way that inium associations are. Generally, iniums are preferred by developers when trying to create housing arrangements with shared common spaces among different unit dwellers.

Dissolving an HOA is a complex process that typically requires: A supermajority vote from homeowners. Legal documentation to formally disband the HOA. Settlement of any outstanding debts or obligations. Approval from local or state authorities, depending on the community's location.

In the event of delinquent fees, inium associations are protected by a Massachusetts law that allows for inium super-liens. The Boston inium lawyers at Pulgini & Norton can help associations and unit owners understand the function of these super-liens.

Legal Framework Governing HOAs in Massachusetts In Massachusetts, homeowners' associations (HOAs) are subject to a robust legal framework. This framework not only aligns with federal regulations but also includes state-specific laws designed to regulate the formation, management, and operation of these associations.

Once you buy a home that's part of an HOA, you automatically become a member of the HOA. HOA rules are legally binding, and you must adhere to all rules and regulations in the governing document. Yes, there are bylaws that you may not like, but there are no HOA loopholes.

The local law supersedes the rules and regulations of the HOA, meaning that HOAs must ensure they are operating under the law.

The best way to strategize on short-term rental restrictions is to speak to a board member. At the same time, you can consult the CC&Rs' (Covenants, conditions, and restrictions) advice. Knowing the potential risks of getting around HOA's restrictions is important. And we highly recommend doing it the legal way.

What Are My Rights as a Condo Owner? As a condo owner, you have the right to use your unit as provided in the master deed – if it's a residential inium unit – in a way that allows you to maintain a reasonable standard of living as required by Massachusetts health, safety and building laws.

No, there is not a way to ``leave the HOA'' without moving. The HOA covenants are tied to the property permanently.
