In real estate, a Homeowners’ Association (HOA) is an organization made up of property owners within a defined community, such as a subdivision, condominium, or planned development. The association is created to manage, maintain, and improve common areas and to help preserve the overall quality and appearance of the neighborhood.
Homeowners’ associations typically enforce rules and restrictions, collect assessments or dues, and provide shared services or amenities. Membership is usually mandatory for property owners within the community, and the association’s authority is established through recorded governing documents.
