Stop asking us to read your posts. It's bad etiquette - think if we all did this instead of posting answers to questions. I guess no one else will tell you so I will.

Sure, but why do that? Apparently the delinquent owner is responsible for all legal fees related to the collections!

posing a question here has the opposite effect of interest in reading your blog post. I would use stronger words than what Lyn Sims and Nina Hollander said. It is not only poor etiquette,  I think most would consider an abuse of the system.  If points is the point, you're missing the point of the platform.

I will read your post after you go to read mine. As soon as I see your comment I will head there. Hey I'm negotiating! LOL

Oh to your question. Probably. But I don't know if I'd do that in the magickal land of AZ. We're all packing! The question is:
do you feel lucky? Well. Do you?

      When I was HOA President, we provided more than ample notice, on our website, in the newsletter, we even posted a reminder "yard sign" at the entrance.   All of that was a courtesy, the Restrictive Covenants did not require us to give any written notice.

      Those who failed to pay by January 31 were sent a letter from our attorney, with his fee added on, notifying them that a lien would be filed on their property if they did not pay the entire amount due immediately.  We filed one or two liens each year on those who did not pay, which added several hundred more dollars in legal fees to their tab.

They are allowed. But better use the association lawyer, lawyer's fees to be paid by owners, who is late in payments for assessment.

Check the bylaws

When you promote your blogs here, it is considered to be spam.

I let the HOAs take care of that - I have nothing to do with that unless they are in arrears when they list. Then, they HAVE to take care of past due dues before they list...unless it's a short sale and it will be taken care of at Closing.

The HOA.

Yes, I know the HOA is comprised of neighbors but it disappointing to realize ones neighbors are such  ......!

Read this ONE.

I really don't know Mott, you have several great answers here from other professionals. 

I am thinking that it would be allowed.

Nah, just evict 'em!

That is the HOA's responsibility.  I would not want to be knocking on doors to collect dues. 

Whatever the rules in the association allow.

Why would they. At some point they can put a lien on the home... that'll get a homeowner's attention.

I wish we knew.

I have a rule about buying anything in an HOA or similar pseudo govt entity.

DON'T!

thank you  Lyn Sims 

Mott Marvin Kornicki ,I hope that you take the constructive criticism offered by Greg Large, Lyn Sims, Roy Kelley , Ron and Alexandra Seigel.

Question, answer, and offer of help! Interstings

What Lyn Sims said.  This is not the best way to promote yourself aka make yourself well known and well thought of.  A

I would do this if I could....the results (and answers) will astound

Whatever works.

Lyn Sims nailed this one!

I don't know.

Thank you.

Thanks for sharing Mott Marvin Kornicki. 

That is a new one on me

In small associations that might work but most just hire it done or turn over to an attorney.

I suppose it depends on the by-laws and rules of the HOA, and state laws.
