Peace and goodwill happen when volunteers bring commitment and a healthy service-oriented attitude.
If a board is bad, elect a new board, because a judge cannot force a board to change. A judge only decides who wins the battle, not the war. So, lawsuits should be the very last resort after all other measures have failed.Do you refer to the HOA as “they”? Because the association is you.
Being part of a common interest community means that by purchase one joins a group of owners. This involves exchanging some independence for the shared benefits of HOA living.Is your attitude of service or one of control? Members are not employees or stockholders – they are neighbors. An understanding that one is a volunteer serving the community is less likely to foster conflict.
—Is a lawyer letter really necessary? When attorneys join the discussion it escalates its intensity and it is harder to de-escalate. Before asking the HOA attorney to send off that “nasty-gram,” consider sending a letter from the board or manager requesting cooperation.Avoid assuming your neighbor is a bad person – they simply might not understand their responsibilities as a co-owner in the community. HOA members often fight because they do not know their rights and responsibilities.
For example, many condominium owners do not know exclusive use areas are still common area and subject to HOA controls. It isn’t their fault that nobody told them otherwise. Good boards, managers, and lawyers should start by informing violators before assuming they don’t care, because maybe they just don’t know.HOAs must have “IDR” policies, in which board representatives meet with homeowners to try to resolve disputes.
