BOCA RATON — If you live in community with a Homeowners Association, you need to
pay all dues and fees on time. If you don’t, no matter how small the amount,
your community may foreclose on your home. That’s exactly what’s happening in
Boca Chase.

A lawsuit just filed
in Palm Beach County Circuit Court claims that Vanetta Dally
of 10823 Waterberry Drive in Boca Raton has failed to pay
fees and dues of $1,125 on a townhouse that was purchased in
2008 for $121,000.
According to the suit, the trouble started when the
homeowner failed to make required HOA payments valued at a
few hundred dollars earlier this year. As the months passed,
the amount owed increased. At the time the lawsuit was
filed, the owner owed at least $1125.
No matter how inconsequential the amount may seem, HOA’s may
foreclose on your home if you do not pay all fees and dues
when required. Homeowner Associations have broad,
far-reaching powers in Florida. If your HOA says you must
pay, quite simply, you must pay.
Boca Chase HOA is represented by Boca Raton Attorney Daniel
Wasserstein. The were no immediate response to the suit
filed by the defendant. |
