Homeowners Association
Posted: Tue Aug 05, 2003 11:58 am
We live in the "new" section of a Hometown America Community which has about 25 residents and maybe 15 empty lots, within the last 3 weeks 9 houses have gone up for sale and after talking to some of the residents they all said with the exception of one that they were moving because of rent increases(two since 1/1/03) and problems with park management. My fiance and I have begun the footwork for starting a homeowners association ( we currently don't have one) and after taking an informal survey, residents were excited to have an association. We are in the process of drawing up letters to send to each resident here to see exactly what the level of participation we could expect. But we have not been able to find any info on how to set up by-laws of the association, setting up dues, how to deal wih management, etc. I have spoken with my attorney who has very little experience in this area and is checking to see if he can find an attorney who has experience dealing wih Mobile home laws as I feel it is extremly important for the association to have counsel. But how do I do the rest, the right way, can anyone help?
