No. An HOA is required to provide an estoppel letter upon request. It can charge a fee.
Typically, the management company or treasurer of an HOA or Condo association prepares the Estoppel Letter, Form, or Certificate.
The correct term is estoppel letter. An estoppel letter is prepared and signed by the HOA that states any common charges or special fees that are due on a unit up through a certain, stated date. The party that requested it can rely on the amounts owed and the HOA is legally bound by the amounts listed. HOAs do charge a fee for providing estoppel letters.

If you have an estoppel letter stating that there are no outstanding dues or fees owed the HOA cannot pass any past due amounts on to you. That estoppel letter is binding.An estoppel letter is a legal document that outlines information regarding the current owner's financial standing in regards to the HOA, what is due and what has not been paid. It also indicates any assessments that are in progress or projected. The estoppel letter is legally binding. Negotiations often result between sellers and buyers once an estoppel letter is received and the negotiations determine who will be responsible for paying any amounts due. It is the responsibility of the buyer's attorney to make certain the buyer takes title with a clean slate.On the other hand, if the HOA is billing you for amounts due prior to your taking title that were reported in the estoppel letter then you need to call the attorney who represented you at your closing and forward the bills. Presumably, they didn't do their job. It would be a serious oversight on the part of that attorney if the outstanding fees and dues were not paid at the closing and the attorney should pay them.

Yeah it's estoppel, whether it be collateral estoppel or any other estoppel, it is estoppel, although estoppel and double jeopardy are synonymous. In civil matter, it's called "res judicata".

Here is a basic definition of "estoppel." Estoppel is a legal doctrine that prevents a person from adopting a position, action, or attitude, asserting a fact or a right, or prevents one from denying a fact inconsistent with an earlier position if it would result in an injury to someone else. There are three types of estoppel and the question is not really specific enough to render a more exact answer.
