Re: HOA Foreclosure

California law does allow HOAs to record a lien and the HOA may foreclosure on that lien. There are limitations on their authority to do. The assessment debt must be $1,800 or more), exclusive of assessment charges; or the debt must be more than 12 months delinquent regardless of the amount.

Re: HOA Foreclosure

Yes, a Condo association may foreclose on your condo for unpaid assessments. However, as stated by another member there are certain requirements that must be met both in the pre-lien and lien process. You should check your governing documents of your community as many communities have payment plans for members that fall behind on their association fees.
