FAQ
In 2024, the California legislature passed an amendment that allowed online elections to be held within HOAs. It recognized that this could open the door to digital vote manipulation within the HOA's management, though, so the state mandated that each HOA election needed to have an independent inspector of elections.
Laws always supersede governing documents IF they conflict and the law applies to your HOA. In California, the Davis-Stirling Act may take precedent over general corporation codes because it's specific to HOAs.
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.
The winding up process includes, among other things, giving notice of the dissolution to creditors of the HOA (Corporations Code § 8618), paying all known liabilities and debts (Corporations Code §§ 8713, 8714), selling assets (Corporations Code § 8710), and distributing any remaining assets to homeowners.
An HOA has the authority to enforce the rules and regulations of the community using the community rules, or “bylaws and covenants.” These rules are considered “agreed upon” since homeowners approve them through board-elected representatives.
While you can propose rule changes through proper channels, there's no legal way to simply ignore or “get around” the HOA's covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) that you agreed to when purchasing in the community.
WHAT IS OUR OBJECTIVE: In California, there are an estimated 50,000 + HOA's comprising iniums, townhomes and single-family associations.
The Davis-Stirling Common Interest Interest Development Act, located in California Civil Code section 4000-6150, governs HOAs in California. This statute covers all common interest developments with individual units and common elements, as well as association memberships.
(a)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (3), unless otherwise provided in the declaration of a common interest development, the association is responsible for repairing, replacing, and maintaining the common area.
