For those living in any kind of Homeowner’s Association, when selling that property always clarify who pays various fees.  Some HOAs charge no fee to give out information, such as restrictions, financial status of association, plat of subdivision and other documents for a buyer to understand the situation with the HOA.  Some associations charge a fee for this and it needs to be determined as the offer is written on the property.  Also if any of the information has to come from a title company, what do they charge.  IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE ABOUT AN HOA BEFORE BUYING.
