“The Texas Legislature will begin its 86th Session on January 8, 2019. In July the Texas HOA Reform Coalition submitted a questionnaire to the candidates in anticipation of the November elections. Texas homeowners need Senators and Representatives to be aware of the unchecked power exerted by HOAs and the urgent need for laws to protect them.” Read more here: HOA Reform Coalition

Question please; how far back can a HOA go back to collect fees? Is it different for each association?
I will await your kind reply
If you are talking about Texas HOA’s, it is 4 years, BUT there are a couple of caveats about that. It is 4 years for the current owner if the HOA / POA chooses not to place a lien or bring a lawsuit against you. If they do not choose to’write it off’, past dues may be collected at the time the property changes deeded owners.
