HOA

What is a HOA?

HOA stands for Homeowner’s Association; a homeowner’s association is the governing body of a subdivision. They are responsible for creating, policing and enforcing the rules, restrictions and bylaws that determine what an individual home owner can do with their property.

In Texas, participation is almost always mandatory. HOAs require that dues be paid and go toward the ongoing operational expenses of the common property. The HOA has a board of directors that is elected by the membership.
