Private homeowners associations (HOAs) levy binding fees and provide local services to members. Both should be capitalized into the value of member properties, but the net effect is ambiguous. We construct the most comprehensive, longitudinal database to date on HOAs for Florida and estimate the impact of HOAs on property values. We find that properties in HOAs sell at a premium just under 5%. The premium is strongest immediately following HOA formation and declines over time, suggesting quick capitalization of HOA benefits. Properties in larger HOAs sell for less, and this is particularly true for properties in the biggest HOAs. Finally, properties located immediately outside of an HOA sell at a premium relative to other non-HOA properties, and this premium marginally decreases (increases) in the size (frequency) of neighboring HOAs.
no.
Yes, "Association" should be capitalized when referring to a specific organization or group. However, if used in a general sense, such as "There was an association between the two variables," it does not need to be capitalized.
According to the Portland Cement Association, portland cement should not be capitalized.
"Parents" is typically not capitalized in the greeting of a letter. It is only capitalized if it is used as part of a proper noun, such as "Dear Parents Association."
It is capitalized at the beginning of the sentence and when it is used as part of the proper noun. Example: Aerospace & Defense Industry Association of Newfoundland
If the title 'Homeowners Association' refers to an actual association, then yes. It is the name of a registered association, and is therefore a proper noun. All proper nouns should be capitalised.However, if it is used as a general term, e.g. "Are you part of any homeowners association?" then it does not require capitals.
"Officials" is capitalized when it is part of a proper noun (e.g., "National Basketball Association Officials"). Otherwise, when used in a general context (e.g., "sports officials"), it is not capitalized.
When it is used as a name of an association, then it should be capitalized. Example: The South Asian Community
No, except at the beginning of a sentence because it is n ot a proper n ou n.
At the beginning of the sentence and when it forms part of the proper noun. Example: Victorian Churches Football Association
It depends on the context. If it is part of a proper noun, then yes. Otherwise, no. For example, if you are talking about the Regional Association of West Quebecers, then it is capitalized. If you are talking about the regional nature of fauna that lives in West Quebec, then it is not capitalized.
Nope. The word "office" isn't part of the official name, presumably. Try substituting any other thing the Homeowners Association might have. Would you capitalize the Homeowners Association softball team, the Homeowners Association stationery, or the Homeowners Association location? (I'm a grammar Nazi--but only on request.)
