Which US states allow HOA Foreclosures?
If a mortgage lender is forced to foreclose on a property with an outstanding, unpaid loan, there is probably nothing in any association structure that would protect a home from this bank action -- in any US state.Read your governing documents to determine whether or not the HOA can sell your property in order to satisfy debts that you owe.Another PerspectiveIn most states the HOA must file a civil action for unpaid fees and win a judgment lien. The authority to take property to satisfy a lien is derived from law, after due process, and not from any provisions of an HOA. State laws vary on the priority of the lien. Generally any existing mortgage and any existing tax liens take priority to the HOA lien. Should the HOA foreclose on the home, it receives proceeds from the sale only after paying off any superior liens. Most HOA liens do not result in a foreclosure sale since the legal costs are high. The property cannot be sold or mortgaged until the lien is paid. The lien is generally paid from the proceeds of a sale to a new owner before the net proceeds are turned over to the seller.For greater detail regarding lien foreclosures in a particular state you need to research the laws in that state.
What happens when two foreclosures are filed on a property one by the lender and one by the Homeowners Association several months later. Which one takes priority?
The answer depends on the laws in your state. Some states give HOA liens special priority (super lien status) and places them before a mortgage that was recorded first. In that case, the mortgage company will generally pay the overdue fees if the HOA threatens to foreclose on its lien.If you are not in a super lien jurisdiction and the first mortgage is foreclosed, the HOA lien would be wiped out.
Do you have to file with Secretary of State for a HOA?
The Secretary of State in your state usually requires an annual fee to maintain the viability of the association's standing as a valid business in your state. This is based on the Articles of Incorporation upon which your HOA is founded.
What is the process for exercising the right to review HOA records?
As a homeowner in a community governed by an HOA, you generally have a legal right to review and inspect most association records. Understanding this process is an important part of transparent community governance, and professional hoa management services such as those provided by Kirkpatrick Management Company help ensure these requests are handled properly and in compliance with applicable laws. HOA records typically include governing documents (CC&Rs, bylaws, rules and regulations), financial statements, budgets, meeting minutes, contracts, insurance policies, and other administrative records that reflect how the association operates. 1. Determine which records you want to review. Start by clearly identifying the documents you wish to inspect. Be specific about the type of record and the time period involved. Specific requests are more likely to be processed quickly than broad or unclear ones. 2. Submit a written request. Most state laws and governing documents require that inspection requests be made in writing. Address your request to the HOA board or the association’s management company. Include your name, property address, and a clear description of the records you are requesting. 3. State a proper purpose if required. Some states require homeowners to provide a reasonable purpose related to their membership interest, such as reviewing financial activity or understanding board decisions. The purpose generally must relate to association business. 4. Allow the association time to respond. HOAs are typically required to respond within a certain timeframe established by state law or their governing documents. The association may provide copies electronically, allow in-person inspection during normal business hours, or charge reasonable copying costs. 5. Review the documents and follow up if necessary. After reviewing the records, you may follow up in writing if additional clarification is needed or if you believe required documents were not provided. If access is improperly denied, homeowners may have remedies under applicable state statutes. Transparent record-keeping benefits both homeowners and board members. Communities that partner with experienced professionals can streamline compliance and communication. Kirkpatrick Management Company offers knowledgeable, responsive support to boards and residents, helping associations manage records efficiently while upholding best practices in community governance.

Generally, procedures for abandonment of the homeowners' association (HOA) are found in the HOA covenants. These procedures would have to be followed unless they were not consistent with state law.
