Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)

I cannot access or sign in to the Owner Access Portal / Buildium

If you are a new homeowner, we have to set up your account before you can log into the portal. Please fill out the new homeowner form to get started. For additional questions, please reach out to [email protected].

Can I make changes to the exterior of my house?

You can, but you must apply through the HOA and be approved before you begin work on the changes. You can find the applications for these changes under the “Architectural Documents” section of your HOA communities page.

Can I park my RV, boat, camper, trailer, etc at my house?

The CC&Rs for the Association prohibit parking/storage of RVs, boats, campers, trailers, etc., in most locations.  For more information, please refer to your Association’s CC&Rs.

Can I put my political signage in my yard?

According to the CC&Rs for the community, no signage, except for “For Sale” signs, is allowed in the community. However, the Idaho House of Representatives recently passed Bill 503, which effectively restricts HOAs from prohibiting the display of political speech on a homeowner’s private property. While the Association can no longer enforce these violations due to this Bill, we do request you be considerate of your neighbors if choosing to display signage.

How do I pay my dues?

See Payment Guide below, or reach out to [email protected].

Are HOA dues optional? What happens if I do not pay them?

No, HOA fees are not optional. Every homeowner is legally required to pay them. Monthly payments are due within 15 days of the billing date.

If your dues are not paid on time, a late fee of 1.5% per month will be applied to the outstanding balance.

The HOA is a legal entity and has the authority to take enforcement actions when dues remain unpaid. These actions may include:

  1. Reporting Delinquent accounts to collection agencies
  2. Pursuing recovery through small claims court in serious cases

Paying dues on time helps ensure the smooth operation and maintenance of the community for everyone.

When are fees due?

HOA Assessments are due on the 1st of each month for that billing month.

Payments should be made within 15 days to avoid a late fee.

Why do we have a HOA?

What are CC&Rs?

CC&Rs stands for Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions. These are the legal documents that outline the rules and guidelines for homeowners within the community.

CC&Rs are binding and enforceable, and they serve as the foundation for how the HOA operates and what is allowed or restricted in the neighborhood.

By purchasing a home in the community, you agree to abide by the CC&Rs as part of your ownership responsibilities.

What are Bylaws?

The Bylaws are the official rules that govern how the HOA operates. While the CC&Rs outline what homeowners can and cannot do, the Bylaws focus on how the HOA itself is structured and managed.

Bylaws ensure that the HOA runs smoothly, fairly, and in compliance with applicable laws.

Who Manages the HOA and how do I contact them?
