What are HOA?

When developers build a community, some will include amenities. These amenities are for the community and are paid for by the community. In addition, some HOAs add rules to protect the community's property value.

These fees may include

  • Maintaining the community's aesthetic.
  • Maintaining amenities such as community pools, halls, skating rinks, etc.
  • Snow clearance during winter.
  • Garbage collection.
  • Stormwater runoff.
  • Pathways and roads.
  • Maintenance of entrance features.
  • Repair and maintenance of landscaping.

These responsibilities vary from community to community. Typically, the more the amenities, the higher the fees.
