Condominium and homeowners associations (HOAs) often provide homeowners with services like lawn care, pool cleaning, snow removal, and other maintenance.

Collecting Unpaid Grand Blanc Condominium and HOA Assessments
To protect property values and improve the quality of life of its residents, condominium associations collect assessments from co-owners. When co-owners neglect to pay their HOA dues, other co-owners are unfairly forced to shoulder the condo association’s operating expenses.
