What are the HOA Documents and Do you need them in a Real Estate Transaction? HOA stands for Homeowners Association and many new subdivisions, gated community, town home complexes and condominium buildings have these types of associations to manage the property and handle any resident concerns. Typically because of the Association, residents are required to pay certain monthly, quarterly or annual dues to maintain their residency. When you buy or sell property within an association also called a common interest development, you’ll need to pay for the HOA documents to review and protect yourself before buying the property. Many times these documents are not even read by the buyers which is a big mistake. This is a huge investment regardless of the price so it’s smart to know all you can ...

Can I add a detached garage with the FHA 203k loan program? Yes, you can, detached garages are perfectly okay with the 203k it is a common missunderstanding that you can't but the rule actually states that IF there  is living area at the garage addition or if you are adding living area it MUST be attached to the main structure. It was a common thing to add a second unit to an existing home when zoned for it and the lot was large enough by adding a garage or carport or two between the new unit and the existing unit all through the 1990's.  We had several in Rodeo where they had to replace the foundation and lifted the home high enough to add two units to the lower level and convert the original home to two units.
