Highland Homeowners Associations
With modern suburban communities, they are planned developments usually
governed by some type of mandatory membership association or most known as “Homeowners Association” (HOA). Homeowners in this
Association usually own their land and the house itself including the
walls, floors, ceilings, etc.
When you choose us as your Highland homeowners associations, we have the primary
responsibility to maintain and repair, in a timely manner, the common
areas of the community. Common areas usually consist of
tennis courts, basketball courts, swimming pool areas, gatehouses, roads
and open space area used for the pleasure of all residents. Landscaping
and maintenance of individual dwelling units such
as painting, roof and structure maintenance usually rests upon each
individual homeowner, unless otherwise specified in association
documents, however, control of paint color used, type of landscaping or
roofing materials are examples of restrictions imposed by many homeowners
associations.
In many cases, a homeowners association will voluntarily assume the
responsibly of certain maintenance items to protect the uniformity
of the community. Examples would include, tree, sidewalk or mailbox
maintenance, whereas the association would budget accordingly to provide
for the repairs and replacement of these items.
State statues for Homeowners Associations are usually considered less
stringent than Condominiums but over the past years the gap between the
two has been lessened considerably.
Clerical and accounting responsibilities include maintaining accurate
records, financial reporting, billing, and collections of assessments and
payments of invoices for work performed to maintain the community.
