The risk has been that your homeowners association will overstep its bounds in managing the common property. Some have gone head to head on displaying flags, realtor signs, front doors, parking and so on. The advantage is that an active association does help the property keep its value over time. That is, if they charge enough in dues to maintain the common areas and don't always go with the lowest bidder. For the most part, the HOA in my townhouse development has done well, but it seems that the same arguments go on year after year. Cheap repairs have had to be done repeatedly. If you can get involved in the HOA, that is perhaps the wisest thing to do since it offers you more input than you might otherwise have.

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.)
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.
It won't. Homeowners insurance is protection from sudden accidental losses, it does cover association dues.
Yes. The homeowners association ID may be valid in any establishment.
If the subdivision is subject to a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants that include a homeowners' association then your property is subject to mandatory membership.
You should consult the body of laws that your state legislature has codified as Condominium and Homeowner Association Laws. As well, your governing documents may have specific application to your particular community.
Property Owners' Association (similar to Homeowners' Association)
A condo or townhouse Homeowners' Association (HOA) governs a group of condos, wherein the association is responsible for the maintenance of the outside of the building(s), landscaping, and utilities, in addition to maintaining common areas and enforcement of the CC&Rs. This is because the properties being governed are condos and not houses. A planned unit development (PUD) HOA is responsible for ensuring compliance with the CC&Rs of the PUD and upkeep of any common areas in the PUD. However, individual owners maintain their homes and land, as each lot in the PUD is individually owned.

A civic association gathers and operates around a civic principle. A homeowners association is a land-use covenant made with the local municipality, county and state that gathers and operates real estate around a set of covenants, conditions, restrictions and reservations. Generally, membership in a civic association is optional; membership in a homeowners association is mandatory when a person purchases property within the boundaries of the association's land plat.
