The titled owner is responsible for HOA assessments, whether it be the fore-closed-up owner or the bank -- when the bank takes over title to the property.


What actions by an HOA in Maryland qualify as proceedings to enforce a lien or collect a debt for unpaid HOA assessment?

Actions such as sending collection notices, filing a lawsuit, obtaining a judgment, or initiating foreclosure proceedings against a property would likely qualify as proceedings to enforce a lien or collect a debt for unpaid HOA assessments in Maryland. Any action taken by the HOA that aims to recover unpaid assessments through legal means can be considered part of the enforcement process.


Is it lawful to place a HOA lien on a home that is in foreclosure?

The key in your question may be 'successful' instead of 'lawful'.If an association waits until a home is in foreclosure to collect long, past-due assessments, the association may not be successful in collecting what is owed.Best practices dictate that the association work with association counsel to collect past-due assessments.AnswerYes. It is lawful to record an HOA lien on a home that is in foreclosure. In fact, in some states HOA liens are given a special status, much like property tax liens, regardless of their recording order.

Can a self managed HOA seize a car owned by a unitowner to pay off the 3500 dollars owed the HOA in delinquent dues as the unit is in foreclosure by the mortgage holder?

If the association wants to be accused of criminal theft, sure. To take the car the legal way, first, the association must file a lien against the delinquent unit. If the lien remains unpaid, then the association can file a lawsuit against the unitowner, unit, bank (as lienholder), and any subsequent purchaser of the unit for foreclosure of the lien. Fortunately for you, HOA dues are superior to any mortgage, lien, or deed of trust against the unit, so no matter what, the association will get paid. In the unlikely event the unit would not sell at auction for the association's foreclosure judgment amount, including attorney fees and court costs, the association could execute on the vehicle of the debtor/unitowner. I suggest consulting with a real estate attorney right away (see one who gives free consultations).


After the bank forecloses on a condo do you pay HOA fees in Florida?

Association assessments are paid by the owner of record. If your name remains on the deed, you owe assessments.In most cases, the homeowner or unit owner is responsible for paying the HOA fees prior to the foreclosure. Once the lender takes legal possession by foreclosure no further fees are added to the amount due but the HOA can pursue payment of the past due amount. In Florida, an HOA can go after a homeowner for past due fees even after the bank has foreclosed by using the process used for a 'deficiency judgment'.


What happens to HOA lien in foreclosure?

Your answer depends on the priority of the lien among the debts owed against the title. Clean title cannot pass to a new owner until the lien is satisfied in some way. In some states HOA liens are given a special status, much like property tax liens, regardless of their recording order/priority. See related link.

If your condo goes into foreclosure do you still owe the condo fees?

Yes, until the bank is the owner. The fact you're in foreclosure doesn't change the fact utilities need to be paid as well as your staff. It's not only the bank that can put you into foreclosure; even your HOA/condo association can force the sale of your home due to delinquency.
