Arizona homeowners get new protections against HOAs

New Arizona laws enhance homeowner protections against homeowners associations (HOAs). Homeowners can now install shade structures, and HOAs cannot foreclose on missed payments under $10,000, up from $1,200. HOAs must act reasonably and without favoritism. Communities must provide fee information to buyers, and homeowners have more time to pay overdue bills. Calls remain for limits on excessive HOA fees and fines.
