Arizona HOA Disputes


Over the past five years, the real estate market in Arizona has gone from boom to bust. This rapid shift has created problems for homeowners, and also the homeowner associations that govern their property. Foreclosures mean fewer monthly dues are available for HOAs to maintain the common areas. Unemployment causes some homeowners to fall behind on their payments to HOAs. It is only natural for disputes to arise between these parties give the economic conditions in Phoenix.

Some disputes that arise between HOAs and homeowners do not need to be litigated in court. New legislation in Arizona took effect in July 2011 that provides homeowners and HOAs a venue for dispute resolution that does not limit the legal rights of either party. A qualified HOA attorney can facilitate a more efficient and less costly resolution to many issues faced by homeowners and HOAs.

Phoenix HOA Lawyer

Disputes between homeowners and HOAs are common. Homeowner associations exist in almost all residential developments in Arizona, including condominiums, townhouses and single-family homes. The primary purpose of the HOA is to enforce the rules and regulations of the association, commonly referred to as the CC&Rs (Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions). Often there are significant restrictions in place that involve maintaining the common areas of the property. The CC&Rs address the following:

  • Pets
  • Parking
  • Assessments
  • Fines
  • Modifications to the appearance of the property
There are laws in place requiring residents to be informed of the HOA restrictions, however many people don’t read every detail of the CC&Rs when they acquire a property. Disputes often arise when homeowners do something they were unaware would cause a problem, or HOAs overstep their boundaries when trying to enforce the CC&Rs.
