My home is in an HOA. What should I get together before I list it for sale?

Homeowner organizing HOA governing documents, statements, rules, and meeting records

Start gathering the HOA's current dues, contact information, governing documents, recent notices, special-assessment information, and anything else the transaction may require from the association. Getting those details organized early can reduce delays once a buyer and escrow need the documents.

Start with current association information

Gather current dues, the association’s contact information, governing documents, recent notices, special-assessment information, and any transaction or transfer forms the HOA may require.

Ask what the transaction will need

Escrow or the buyer may need specific resale documents, disclosure packages, fee information, or transfer paperwork. Requirements can vary, so keep the page general and confirm the exact items for your association and transaction.

Early organization can prevent delays

Having the current HOA details ready gives Dominique and escrow a head start when a buyer needs to review the association information and deadlines are already running.

California and San Fernando Valley context

For a San Fernando Valley HOA property, gathering the current governing documents, dues information, insurance details, transfer requirements, and known assessments early can reduce last-minute questions once the home is marketed.
