FAQ

What are unenforceable HOA rules? Keep you out of court. Hush up litigation. Discriminate indiscriminately. Enter your home without cause or notice. String you out on the (clothes)line. Fine you for fun. Change rules on the fly. Demand you take down your dish.

In general, California's HOA laws protect volunteer board members from personal liability. (Civ. Code §5800; Corp. Code §5047.5(b).)

If the pipes are only inside individual units or houses, they're the unit owners' to handle. However, when the plumbing serves multiple units and extends into common walls, shared spaces, or underground, it usually becomes the HOA's responsibility.

Common areas generally pertain to the properties and amenities of an HOA that all homeowners can use. These include hallways, elevators, sidewalks, pools, parks, and fitness centers. The HOA is typically responsible for maintaining and repairing these shared areas.

Leaks in your unit are your responsibility, so you will need to call a plumber for repair. If the leak appears to be from a common area water line, call the Association's property manager. Provide as many details as possible about the nature and location of the leak.

The Davis-Stirling Act in California spells out the rules for open meetings, which greatly affects when and how HOA boards can have closed meetings. Section 4900 of the Act says that all HOA board meetings must be open to all association members, with a few exceptions for private sessions.

Generally, a condo owner in California is responsible for the interior of their unit. The Condo Association (or HOA), is responsible for shared areas and the structure of the building.

While the intention is admirable, most experts do not recommend having informal board meetings. If board members have difficulty making decisions on the spot, they can move the item for discussion at the next meeting. This will give them time to consider the topic and come up with the right questions.

How to write a letter to your board or manager Start with the date, sender and recipient information. You do not need to include the date or address of the recipient if you are sending an email. Write a clear and concise subject line. Get to the point. Offer a solution, if possible. Thank the recipient for their time.

4925. (a) Any member may attend board meetings, except when the board adjourns to, or meets solely in, executive session.
