Review your governing documents to determine what is required before painting a house. If permission is required and permission was granted, this is evidence that you can use to defend the colour of your house.

The management company has no say in exterior colours -- the board may have a list of 'approved' colours.

If permission is required and no permission was asked for or granted, you may be required to re-paint your house.

If permission is not required, you can ask the association to pay to re-paint your home, once they approve colours, or you can ask that your current paint job be 'grandfathered in'.

How do you get out of a home owners association when your builder-developer is going bankrupt?

You cannot necessarily separate your property from a home owner's association because the developer is in bankruptcy. If the remaining property is sold to a new developer it would acquire all the rights appurtenant to the land including sponsorship of the homeowner's association. When you purchase a property in a planned community you are automatically a member of the association. Unless the association is dissolved, you will remain a member as long as you own the property. Depending on how many lots were already sold you may need to bring an action in court to have the homeowner's association extinguished. The homeowner's association was intended to protect the rights of anyone who purchased a lot in the subdivision and until something changes legally it would remain effective. In some cases, the association simply becomes idle when there are not enough members to support it. However, even in that case, the property remains subject to the HOA until it is dissolved. In other cases where the development is not brought to completion all the lot owners can agree to disband the HOA. They need the advice of an attorney who specializes in real estate to guide that process. Generally, HOA funds are kept separate from the assets of the developer. If the funds were co mingled, when your builder-developer files for bankruptcy, your association's attorney may be able to preserve rights, monies and other assets of the community.


Can condo association remove tree because tree block satellite TVsignal?

Your answer depends on who owns the tree. If the tree is an association asset, and the board has decided that its value is exceeded by the value of a satellite TV signal, then removing the tree is a legal -- although questionable by some -- action. If the tree is not owned by the association, then the association cannot legally remove the tree.

Can a Florida condo association require an application for renters?

Read your governing documents to determine what the association is required to review prior to your renting your unit. It is possible that the association has a rental cap, in which case, your rental may or may not be allowed, depending on the current percentage of rentals in the community. The association is not in the business of approving your tenant, but can require proof from you that you have performed a background check and a financial check on a prospective tenant. The association may require proof that you asked a prospective tenant for an application, but the association is not legally allowed to require it. The association may require that you supply a copy of any rental agreement you sign with a tenant.
