FAQ
The main difference is that covenants dictate property-related restrictions, while bylaws govern how the HOA operates — things like board elections, meeting procedures, and voting rights. Because covenants are recorded with the property deed and tied to real estate law, they generally hold more weight.
Can you refuse to join a Homeowner's Association? The short answer is yes. Under the law, all homeowners are qualified to join a HOA, but they are not required or mandated to be members. Membership is optional unless it's stipulated in the Deed of Sale or relevant documents are annotated in the title of the property.
Statutory Basis: RA 9904 (Magna Carta for Homeowners and Homeowners Associations) and its IRR grant HOAs the right to impose and adjust reasonable fees and assessments. Procedure: Increases require: A board resolution. Proper notice to members.
