If your governing documents give the board the authority to replace major components of commonly owned assets, or if they give the board the authority to dictate replacement of privately owned assets, then the board's process for enforcing its decisions should also be written there.

Once the board has verified its rights to require that the roof be replaced, and the owner's roof has been replaced and the owner refuses to pay for it, you can follow the procedures for collecting a debt from the owner as set forth in your governing documents.

Your association's council can help you verify that it's time for a lien to be filed, and can help you gather the necessary details to file one.

How can a contractor in California obtain money owed from a homeowner if the homeowner refuses to pay even though a mechanic lien was filed?

See a construction law attorney and have a lawsuit for foreclosure of lien initiated. I do not recommend filing your own lawsuit--they are quite complicated and attorney fees can be collected if you win.


If tree removal services are performed and not paid can the homeowner be sued?

If the homeowner agreed to pay for the services then the contractor can sue in civil court. However, the contractor must show evidence that the services were performed and that the homeowner agreed to pay for the removal. If the contractor prevails, the court will issue a judgment lien that can be recorded in the land records. The property cannot be sold or refinanced until the lien is paid. The best method of having the necessary evidence for a lawsuit in hand when the homeowner refuses to pay is to provide a written estimate of the services with one copy to the homeowner and one to stay with the contractor. If the homeowner agrees to the terms of the estimate both parties should sign and date the estimate. The contractor should have the homeowner sign again after the job has been completed. Forms can be purchased at a business supply store or made up on a home computer if necessary. The contractor should take some photos of the tree prior to cutting and then after the job has been completed. Unfortunately, few contractors and homeowners arrange to have the proper documentation prepared and signed prior to the work being performed.


Will homeowner's insurance cover an overflow toilet?

No. Homeowners insurance does not provide coverage for routine expected plumbing maintenance issues. However, If you have "Accidental Water Discharge" coverage on your policy, then you will be covered for resulting damages from the overflow but not for the actual plumbing repairs needed. If you have damages that resulted from the overflow, once you have made the required plumbing repairs the company will invoke the damage coverage. If you do not make the necessary plumbing repair then the insurance company will not fix the other damages that resulted from it. The reasoning is that if the homeowner refuses to maintain the home, then this is a moral hazard (negligence) on the part of the homeowner and the damages that result from lack of maintenance will be ongoing.


What is freedom of information act policy for home owners associations in Texas?

The Freedom of Information Act governs release or partial release of previously undisclosed documents controlled by the United States Federal Government. When you want access to documents held by your homeowners association, you can ask for them. These documents are controlled by your state association law, and by the covenants contained in your association's governing documents. Best practices dictate that owners or their agents have access to the business documents relating to the association's business upon request. You may be limited to reviewing the documents at your association's management's location during their business hours, and if you choose to make copies, pay for them. There will be documents that may be withheld when this information is protected by ongoing attorney-client privilege, or when the details could compromise the privacy of a person. Make your request for particular documents in writing. If your association refuses to produce them, you can engage an association-savvy attorney who may be able to help you.


Right of first refusal for condominium association sample?

This right is documented in your governing documents, because each situation is unique. Essentially, it means that should you decide to sell your unit, the association reserves the right to purchase it, and if it refuses -- by right of first refusal -- to buy it, you can sell it on the open market.

You are a subcontractor who agreed to do work for a retail flooring store work is complete retailer refuses to paycan you file a lien on him?

Hopefully you had a contract with the flooring store which spells out how you were gong to be paid. If not, the next best course of action might be to file a 'mechanics lien' against the homeowner. Unfortunately this brings the innopcent homeowner into the picture but it may be necessary to do so in order to get him (force him) to help you bring pressure against the flooring store. Contact a local attorney who can explain it to you.
