Many Florida homeowners live in residences that have oversight by homeowner associations. These organizations create and enforce rules that all residents are required to follow and oversee the maintenance and repair of common areas.

Under Florida law, if a resident fails or refuses to pay these fees, the HOA has the power to foreclose on the resident’s property.

What Is an HOA?

HOAs are usually found in condominium complexes, subdivisions, mobile home communities, and other types of communities where there are common areas shared by all residents.

Member Fees

Members are required to pay fees, either monthly or yearly, to share in the expense of maintenance and repairs.
