HOA

Leisure Glen is a Homeowners Association.

Membership Is Mandatory

When you buy a property governed by a homeowner’s association, you automatically become a member of the association. You do not have the choice of not joining. The purchase of your home becomes a contract with the HOA. You agree that you’ll obey all the HOA rules.

 

Rules for Homeowners
HOA rules are called covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&R). CC&Rs usually apply to both you and your home. They might cover what color you can paint your home, what you can plant in your yard, how many cars you can own and park, and whether you can own a pet. There are usually noise restrictions as well. Rules differ, so carefully study the ALL HOA DOCUMENTS before you buy.
There Are Penalties for Breaking the Rules
When rules are broken, many HOAs punish homeowners. Many HOAs are corporations. As such, they are legal entities that can enforce contracts with their homeowners. The usual penalty for breaking a rule is a fine. If you refuse to pay, the HOA can take other steps, such asĀ  putting a lien on your home.
You Must Pay Dues
Homeowners in a covenant-controlled development must pay association fees, these are monthly fees, as part of their membership. HOAs use this money for maintenance of common areas used by all the homeowners, such as walking paths, swimming pools, or recreation centers.
Advantages of HOAs
HOAs balance their restrictions with advantages. If all the homeowners follow the rules, you will never have a nuisance neighbor. Your property value, based partly on neighborhood conditions, will be stable. You will have access to luxurious amenities, like a pool, tennis courts, bocce courts, and recreation center. You will have a voice and a vote in a defined community. A purchaser of a Home in Leisure Glen will automatically assume the rights and obligations of membership in the Association upon closing title to his Home and will automatically become a member of the Association (“Member.”) Each Homeowner will be considered as one (1) Member and entitled to only one (1) vote no matter how many Homes a member may own. Prospective purchasers should be aware that if they resell their Homes, those who purchase from them will also automatically become Members of the Association. The mandatory nature of membership in the Association is set forth in the Declarations.

    our LG board of directors are control freaks that make new rules removing amenities, spending money at their whim ( dark gray depressing “state of the ART” club house
    that has had covid without sharing with the community. Our Pres of board of directors thought its m0re important to waste our money calling our attorney to see if he should share with the community make an informed decision as to enter that area safely. They claim state of the art ion system . Mr Ed showed his true colors by that move. He is clearly not a leader.
    Our community vote was for another person but Mr Ed, took over. He is ruining our wonderful community with numerous rules that do not apply to all residents. Another false scales of justice that you steal our money for
    ie: fences shrubs neighbor problems etc OOOOPs only applies to some. ie: dYou should be ashamed how our community residents are treated (other than BOD & friends)
    Many of our older residents do not say anything because they gave up fighting for our own rights. In your opinion we have a “state of the art” “country club”
    so it may be best for residents to move into club house. Odds are this doesn’t go to the necessray people due to blockage of freedom of speech
    Stop ruining LG with your rule a month club with rediculous rules removing what are paying for… Shame on you
