This is a delicate issue with both legality and ethics playing crucial roles. In most instances, it's not typically recommended for a board member of an HOA to also be a paid employee of the same association. This is primarily due to potential conflicts of interest that could arise.

However, the specific answer to your question can be dependent on your Association’s governing documents. Often, your HOA's Bylaws or Declaration, in accordance with state laws, will specify whether a board member can concurrently be a paid employee. So it's worth looking into your association's rules first.

At Daisy, our best practice advice would always be to keep the roles of employee and board member separate when possible. This helps to maintain transparency and avoid conflicts of interest in decisions that affect the community. It's all part of how we aim to ensure the best management and satisfaction of the building community.

You would have to research the wording of your HOA documents (and possibly your state's HOA/Condo laws)to determine if this is prohibited or not. However, it doesn't sound like a good idea because ofa possible conflicts of interests.

Can a member of an association- suing the association- run for the BOD of that association in Florida?

Read your governing documents to determine whether or not the status of an owner as a plaintiff in a suit against the association remains qualified to run for the board. Often, professionals encourage owners who are dissatisfied with the performance of their board to run for election. You may also query association counsel for a formal legal opinion, if you believe that one is in order.


Can the board president dismiss a member?

It depends on whether the member is a member of the board, or a member of the association. If, for example, the developer is the board president and has appointed a member of the board who serves at the pleasure of the developer, the developer may indeed be able to dismiss such a member. Your governing documents detail whether or not this is possible and the process by which it is completed. If a board member has been elected by the members/ owners, then no: the President board member may not dismiss another board member. Board members can only be recalled by a vote of owners. On the other hand, if owners are members and not members of the board, then, no: all owners are members of the association until their property is sold to another buyer. They cannot be dismissed by anyone. Your governing documents are clear, and if they are silent, your state law governing associations is clear about the rights of boards and their responsibilities and authorities, depending on the status of the association. As well, if the association is a corporation, state law governing that type of corporation may apply.

What if you own a home that has a home association but the home association did not make you a member or send you a bill?

Review the documents you signed when you purchased your home. If your home is within an association boundary, you, too, are responsible for the maintenance, preservation and protection of all the real estate assets that the association owners own in common. This is a legal obligation. You are automatically a member in this case. The association is not a club; membership is not optional. Best practices dictate that you contact your board of directors or your managing agent, and inform them of your mailing address, your date of purchase and inform them that you are expecting to pay your assessments as a new member of the community. It's unfortunate that your association hasn't yet welcomed you into the community otherwise, and at least informed you of your assessment obligation.
