Community
associations, also known as homeowners associations (HOAs), are
responsible for maintaining the common areas, managing the community’s
finances and, at the direction of the board of directors, enforcing the
guidelines in the covenants, conditions and restrictions. The concerns
of associations vary according to the type of housing community.
The real estate
section of Maxwell, Freeman & Bowman, P. A. handles all matters
involving community associations, including interpreting and drafting
the governing documents and taking action against owners for violations
of the governing documents (i.e. the failure to pay assessments). Our
firm also serves as general counsel to associations and provides
guidance to associations on all matters and issues that arise within the
community association on a day-to-day basis.
Serving as a member
of your community board of directors requires a significant investment
of time and energy. No matter how committed you may be to managing
affairs and addressing issues, you may not be equipped to handle complex
association issues. Legal assistance can save the association money and
headaches by improving efficiency and addressing situations before they
escalate into expensive problems.
Maxwell, Freeman &
Bowman, P.A. has successfully advised all types of homeowner
associations for more than 30 years. Contact us today to schedule an
