FAQ
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.
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.
You can use the Recorded Document Search to find the Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) for a property or HOA. CC&Rs are typically recorded under the name of the property subdivision or the name of the HOA. When searching, please search using the "Business Name" section.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Essentially, HOAs are not subject to open meeting law because they are private entities that do not fit the definition of “public body” in A.R.S. § 38-431. That being said, HOAs are still subject to some meeting requirements laid out in A.R.S. § 33-1804.
The board of directors is the cornerstone of any association, as the guiding force responsible for ensuring smooth operations. It plays a crucial role in safeguarding stakeholders' interests and overseeing the effective functioning of every organ within the association.
The ARS grants the board specific powers such as the ability to foreclose on a house for unpaid liens and establish rules concerning the exterior appearance of homes and other community-related restrictions. HOAs in Arizona are also bound by rules set forth in their own governing documents.
