This live audio conference will address relevant legal issues and practical considerations related to the collection of assessments for condominium and homeowner associations. Given current economic trends, the suppressed housing market and rising rates of foreclosures and bankruptcies, homeowners' associations are now inundated with delinquencies and legal issues in degrees not previously experienced. What may have been generally accepted as effective practices just a few years ago to collect unpaid assessments may not be working in today's economy. We will discuss various legal rights, remedies and proceedings related to community association assessment collection, particularly in light of the historically high foreclosure and bankruptcy filings. Step-by-step procedure for pursuing litigation, either against a homeowner personally or through lien foreclosure, will also be summarized discussing related costs, risks and other considerations to assist associations in making more effective and sensible business decisions to adapt to current market and economic conditions.
