Working with a foreclosing lender is never an easy task.
Best practices dictate that the board work with its counsel to file the proper paperwork and send the invoices to the proper address, and file the proper documents that cloud the title sufficient to have some chance of collecting the assessments due from the property at the time of sale.

You owe 1300 in HOA fees due to the fact that they are not upkeeping the subdivision or following through on what they are supposed to do- Should I pay or challenge it in court?
(Continuation from above) I live in the state of Florida. I received a summons for past-due home association dues. Indeed I owe this money but they have added on a enormous amount of fees on as well. I have asked them to drop these fees and began making payments in installments. They agreed to drop the fees and 6 months later they added the fees on once again and 3x the amount. They are not doing anything to maintain the subdivision; where most of the homes are being foreclosed and looks like a broken-down ghost town. They are requesting me to pay $3000 for $1300 owed dues. Should I challenge this in court or pay these fees?
What is the best way to get HOA dues paid for non payers?
Your governing documents document collection procedures and those should be followed first. Given no response by the owner, you may need to pursue the HOA's legal options. I suggest that the HOA work with its attorney and file liens against the delinquent properties. That way, this clouds the title, making it difficult for the delinquent homeowners to refinance or sell their homes. Also, HOA liens can be foreclosed in most states, even above mortgages, so the HOA is basically guaranteed payment. This process is documented in your governing documents. Remember that since the HOA covenants and/or state law give the HOA the right to collect attorney fees in case of homeowner default, the cost of the transaction will eventually be paid by the owners.
