A beautifully landscaped neighborhood; pride in your community; and having places to gather, like poolside with family and friends – are just a few reasons Homeowners Associations (HOA) communities are so popular. With all the great benefits, comes the need to understand your responsibilities to the HOA. If you’re considering renting a home in an HOA community, ask a leasing agent for a copy of the HOA Rules and Regulations and familiarize yourself with them.
