Living in an HOA:

Maybe you moved here specifically because it’s an HOA, or maybe you moved here despite it being an HOA, or maybe it didn’t factor into your decision at all. In any case, you are now a member of a planned community, and the co-owner of some neighborhood infrastructure! Simply by buying this home, you are automatically legally bound to the Association’s governing documents and all of the rules and restrictions within. Hopefully, before buying your home, you reviewed the documents to make sure you can live with all of the rules. 

There are pros and cons to living in an HOA. Many people like knowing that they will never have to look outside to a view of old cars up on blocks, or a hot pink house. When everyone is held to a certain degree of accountability for the appearance of their home, it benefits the entire community. On the other hand, you do give up some individual choices and preferences when you buy a home in an HOA.  Some pros and cons might be:

Rules & Restrictions:

• Pros:  Increases and protects neighborhood aesthetics, quality of life, and home values.

• Cons: You might not agree with all of them, they may hinder your individual desires and preferences. 

Shared Common Spaces:

• Pros:  Private road means less traffic, paths and common areas mean added beauty and enjoyment.  

• Cons:  You must share in the expenses related to maintaining shared property. 

Structured Community:

• Pros:  A stronger sense of community; knowing your neighbors; community participation; shared values. 

• Cons:  Common values and goals for the “greater good” over those of each individual. 

What is my role as a homeowner? 

Homeowners are required to pay all dues and assessments, and adhere to all of the provisions of the Bylaws and the CC&R’s. Homeowners should also make an effort to stay informed, vote in elections, participate in community decisions, and get involved in neighborhood betterment activities. After all, your home is probably your biggest investment!

What is the Board’s role? 

The Board is required to: collect dues, keep up the finances (budget, insurance, taxes. etc.), facilitate maintenance and repairs of common property, keep HOA records, adhere to all provisions of the Bylaws and the CC&R’s, and enforce all of the rules fairly and consistently. 

Are ALL of these rules and restrictions really followed? 

Yes, that is the intention. Homeowners have the right to expect that the governing documents will be followed, and the Board is obligated to make sure that happens, with fairness and objectivity. Not enforcing the rules makes the association vulnerable to legal trouble. If we start ignoring the rules, then we weaken the association’s ability to operate appropriately, now and in the future. 

Enforcement of some rules might make some neighbors unhappy - but NOT enforcing the rules also makes neighbors unhappy! Either way, some people may be unhappy. Again, this is part of living in an HOA where the rules exist for the overall common good of the community. We are not all going to agree with every single rule, but we do ALL still have to follow them. 

In Quail Park, the board members are also your neighbors. This can put those folks in a really tough spot when working to enforce the rules. Very careful thought and consideration goes into every decision. The board closely follows the governing documents, the Oregon Planned Community Act, and the advice of Quail Park's legal counsel (Vial Fotheringham). Rule enforcement can be unpleasant and difficult, but it’s part of the job. Fortunately, most people follow the rules most of the time!
