Some realty sites display HOA dues on their listings. You might search some properties in that community that are for sale.

They have a website that I emailed to and they emailed back with prices. I can't remember (It is in my email somewhere) but didn't seem high. Nice talking to you suaz, maybe we'll both be there at the same time. That would be nice.

The web site doesn't mention the regular "fees" but does mention "assessments." Which implies there are times when the regular fees cannot cover needed expenses for some project or other.

What does that mean. They can charge you more or is it voted on.

Depends on the how the bylaws or covenants are written...
It usually means that there is some project that will have costs exceeding the value of the escrow account where the fees reside. Normally the need for the project would be voted on by the board of directors and hopefully by all of the HOA members too.
All of that information should be contained in the HOA rules and regulations which every potential buyer should fully understand before committing to purchase. HOA fees can also rise due to various factors - inflationary trends being the significant one.
