HOA Legislation Needed for Majority of Colorado Home Owners
Posted 11-16-2014 at 05:48 PM by coloradohoaforum
Homeowners Association (HOA) issues are not the most sexy issues but are the most underreported issues affecting a majority of Colorado home owners. These issues are also mostly neglected by our legislators who don't fully understand the economic and property rights issues associated with HOAs. Colorado has numerous, definitive, and comprehensive HOA laws but presently these are mostly unenforceable from the home owners perspective. HOA home owners pay fees and assessments upwards of $10 million a year to sell their homes that are not applicable too other home owners. These home owners are also unknowingly (until they receive a bill) subjected and vulnerable to major special assessments and fees without their knowledge or approval and if not paid can be foreclosed upon. It is also the only living environment that requires a home owner to go to court using their limited funds to defend their rights under the law only to have their own money (HOA dues) used in court by the HOA to defeat such rights. HOA legislative reform is needed, is non-partisan, and will affect the lives of Coloradans equal to any legislation passed. Our organization, Colorado HOA Forum, [URL="http://www.coloradohoaforum.com/"][COLOR=#0000ff]www.coloradohoaforum.com[/COLOR][/URL], will again be seeking legislative sponsors and media interest for this highly affective issue that is more material than sensational in the lives of our citizens.
