A homeowners association is designed to preserve the common welfare and the property values of the community. In a properly operated community, it does. In a poorly run community, it does not. The proper operating procedures are not difficult, but they are often overlooked or misunderstood. This manual provides a step-by-step explanation of the requirements for meetings, membership voting, and the necessary parliamentary procedures. It serves as a guide to help ensure that the association carries out its responsibilities fairly and effectively.

You will learn: • the concept and purpose of a homeowners association • the rights and responsibilities of individual owners • how to run effective meetings • what documents you need for meetings • the rules of procedure and proper decorum • the role of the board of directors • the role of committees • how to set a budget and deal with finances and insurance • how to amend and enforce documents

In addition to the comprehensive text, there are twenty-eight forms and sample documents—all you need to run an effective homeowners association.
