2 HOA- 1 Property

[Dolev Zaharony]

Hello,

I have a rental townhouse in a complex that has a monthly HOA (~$2K yearly). That complex is located within a larger neighborhood that has another HOA. The larger HOA is asking for a yearly fee of ~$300. Do I have to pay that as well? When I asked them what I was paying for, they said common areas, but I pay monthly to the complex's HOA, and that covers the common areas as well.

Location- North Raleigh, NC.

Thanks!

That's unfortunate. But yes, you are under both HOAs then. This stuff happens with condos and townhomes sometimes, and very frustrating. I try to avoid HOAs for rentals but if you're going down the townhouse route you can't, need to be careful with them.
