FAQ
The covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) are a set of rules that govern the operation of an HOA, including what rights and responsibilities the HOA has, what requirements and limitations homeowners must follow (for example, regulations on fencing height and placement), and what remedies there are for ...
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.
HOAs are usually governed by a board of directors or governors that is elected by the homeowners to make decisions about the HOA and enforce its rules. Most HOAs in California are set up as nonprofit mutual benefit corporations, but some may be structured differently.
An association's CC&Rs shall be enforceable equitable servitudes unless unreasonable. (Civ. Code § 5975.) Use restrictions in a recorded declaration are afforded a "presumption of validity" and enforced unless found unreasonable under a deferential standard.
Association directors have many responsibilities. These include adopting a budget, authorizing year-end disclosures, pursuing delinquent assessments, conducting proper elections and enforcing the governing documents, especially the CC&Rs (“CC&Rs”) and Operating Rules.
An association may opt to amend or restate its CC&Rs to reflect changes in the law, to address circumstances in the development that may not have existed when it was originally formed, or to modify the rights and responsibilities of the association and its members.
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 local law supersedes the rules and regulations of the HOA, meaning that HOAs must ensure they are operating under the law.
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.
