A Homeowner’s Association, or HOA, is an organization of property owners that administer rules and uphold covenants of a certain subdivision, development, or condominium complex. The rules of a HOA affect or limit what Homeowners can do on the property that they own. Historically, HOA’s have been somewhat difficult to deal with, but they are also becoming increasingly common in residential communities. So how do you ensure that you are in compliance with your HOA when making home improvements?
