HOA Relief

Buying a condo or HOA home

Don't buy someone else's $40,000 bill.

Big repairs that the building hasn't saved for become special assessments, and they land on whoever owns the unit when the board votes. Check the building before your contingency ends.

Eight quick questions about the building.

How old is the building?
How tall is it?
Is it within about 3 miles of the ocean?
What do you know about the reserve fund?
Any special assessment approved or being discussed?
How much did the monthly fee rise last year?
Any lawsuits, failed inspections or insurance problems mentioned?
When does your contingency period end or do you close?
