∙ 12y agoIf a lien for unpaid dues was recorded against the property prior to the recording of the mortgage that was foreclosed, that lien would survive against the property and would have to be paid when the property is sold. If no lien was recorded then it is likely the HOA is out of luck. The HOA could try to sue in court but the likelihood of collecting from someone who has lost their home by foreclosure is not good.

What is an involuntary lien against my property?
An involuntary lien would be a judgment lien by a creditor, a lien for unpaid property taxes or income taxes, a demolition lien, a lien for unpaid common expenses or homeowners association dues or a mechanic's lien. Contrast that with a lien you granted in your property such as a mortgage which would be a voluntary lien.
What can a homeowners association do if your home is for sale and you do not pay?
If a homeowner is part of a homeowners association (HOA) and they are not paying their dues or assessments, the HOA typically has the right to place a lien on the property. This means that if the homeowner sells the property, the HOA will be entitled to collect the unpaid dues from the proceeds of the sale. Additionally, the HOA may take legal action, such as filing a lawsuit, to recover the unpaid dues.
I claimed bankruptcy and it was discharged in January. When am I no longer liable for association dues for my house that is being forclosed upon?
Sorry, but, if you did not surrender the property in your bankruptcy, you are liable until the house is no longer in your name. There are some things a lawyer can try to do to get you out of it. The association dues usually have to be paid at the closing if the lender wants to give a clear title. Check with a lawyer in your state who is familiar with housing associations.

How many years back can a hoa collect dues?

In some states, there may be a statute of limitations that limits the number of years an HOA can collect dues, typically ranging from 3 to 10 years. However, it is recommended to consult with a lawyer or review the governing documents of the HOA to determine the exact time frame for collecting dues.
Do you have to pay homeowner association dues?
