In WA, the wording would be as followed (though I'm sure it would work in other states also): EXAMPLE HOA, Claimant v. BRAD EXAMPLE, Defendant KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS: that a certain lien, claimed by lien notice filed and recorded in the office of the County Recorder of Nita County, Nita, on the 6th day of June, 1984, under recording no. 1884060600001984, by the above named claimant against the above named defendant, for the sum of $1984.00, upon the following property: Lot 6, Block 6, Oceana, as recorded in Book 19 of Plats, at Page 84, records of Nita County, Nita Parcel No. 19845566 is paid and satisfied, and the same is hereby released. _____________________ Eyeman Example, Board President Example HOA (Notary acknowledgement goes here)
If your assessments and dues were overdue when you paid them and if the homeowners association has the right to assess overdue fines then the answer is yes.
It won't. Homeowners insurance is protection from sudden accidental losses, it does cover association dues.
They can try, but it won't be valid because they didn't file a lien release as required by law (in California)
Read your contract.
Removing a lien or liens does not require covenant amendment. It will be easier for the board not to file a lien in a given situation, than to remove this collection tool from its options. Assessments -- not dues -- are owed by owners and pay for the operation of the community.
No. A HOA is not considered a business.
It depends on the specific rules and regulations of the homeowners association (HOA) in question. Some HOAs may require homeowners to pay dues even if their home is under construction, while others may exempt them from paying until the construction is complete. It is important to review the HOA's governing documents or consult with the HOA directly to determine their specific policies regarding dues for homes under construction.

Best practices dictate that the association's treasurer calculate overdue assessments with late fees and surplus charges separately. Then the board can negotiate with an owner to pay late assessments, which represent the expenses of the association to operate the community. The board may choose or may not choose to waive the late fees and surplus charges, but waiving them may encourage the owner to pay the assessments in full.
