How do i dissolve my homeowners association or remove my building from the association?



My home is like a twin home but legally its a condo. The land is shared or something like that. I have one neighbor connected to me who wants to drop the association also because he cant do improvements to his own home. I called them and told them to come and clean my gutters and they havent done a thing. When they replace siding they paint it to match it it looks like crap when the paint comes off. Is it possible to take our building (me and my neighbor) out of the association?

it will be much easier for you to just sell and move....(buy a house next time) this is virtually impossible to accomplish.

you may want to retain a real estate attorney..but this is gonna cost you some $$$

My understanding is that it is not an easy process, but can be done.

I don't think you can remove yourself, but when dealing with the association you need to put it in writing. Most of these boards are ran by a bunch of yahoo's who don't have a clue what their responsibilities are or the association.
No. The HOA was set up as a mutual benefit corporation. The CC&Rs explain you responsibilities and rights as well as the associations responsibilities and rights.
You can't. Once a property is on the association's roster it is there permanently, no matter who moves into/out of the property in question. If you fight it and manage to get out somehow be prepared for constant harrassment from them. Even the homeowners who are not part of the assocation are probably getting harrassed by them too.

My neighborhood is a mix of old/new houses. I live in one of the older houses. When the association came in and took over the people living in the older houses had the option not to join so we didn't. Irregardless of that we still get harrassed by the association just as if we were a member.
If it's legally a condo, you can't. Condos are rights to air space you don't own actual land (townhomes, you own the ground underneath and actually have a deed for that land).

I would sell if they are not maintaining your property.
