FAQ
Here are some of the documents you can ask for as a homeowner: CC&Rs: The covenants, conditions and restrictions (CC&Rs) outline the rules and regulations of the community. Bylaws: The bylaws establish operational procedures for the HOA, like voting rights, elections, meetings, powers of the board, and more.
The Homeowners Association Dispute Process is administered by the Arizona Department of Real Estate, which has the statutory jurisdiction to hear issues between residents and homeowner or inium associations.
An HOA does not have the power to evict homeowners from their homes. However, an HOA can take legal action against a homeowner who violates the community's bylaws or CC&Rs (Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions), which can result in fines or in extreme cases, foreclosure.
A proper HOA request letter should include: Clear headers with date and contact information. The property address and owner details. A specific subject line identifying the request type. A concise project description. Relevant timeline and completion dates. Supporting documentation references.
In Arizona, CC&Rs are usually enforced by homeowners associations (HOAs). In many cases, however, they may also be enforced by individual homeowners.
A quorum of the board should not be using email to discuss or make decisions on association business, and the use of unanimous consent in lieu of board meeting is potentially subject to legal challenge.
The Arizona inium Act is a set of statutes enacted by the Arizona legislature that applies to the governance and operation of iniums and inium associations in the state of Arizona.
Lien Process Limitations: In Arizona, an HOA cannot foreclose on a home solely for unpaid fines (Arizona Revised Statutes 33-1807). While unpaid fines can lead to legal action or liens on the property, foreclosure is only permitted for unpaid assessments (like maintenance fees or dues), not fines alone.
