Question:
I’m looking for help in filing a property lien for non-payment of HOA dues over many years.
– Joan
Answer:
Hi Joan,
Kindly review the governing documents to see whether there are provisions involving placing liens on property. Usually, the HOA must provide the homeowner with a notice and demand for payment. The HOA may also need to provide the homeowner with a cure period to cure their financial obligation.
Once passed, the HOA can file a lien by preparing and recording a lien document with the county recorder’s office. Afterward, HOAs typically need to send a notice of lien to the homeowner. For further guidance, kindly consult a lawyer.
