Thanks for the very quick response - I should add that when we received the $60 bill last year, we didnt pay it - we asked for a copy of the HOA policy and never recieved a reply, so never paid.I am currently awaiting word back from the HOA (we asked them for itemized lists of our account, along with the HOA agreement which we have never seen) - I have never used a lawyer for anything, so I am quite nervous at this point- but I imagine it might be money well spent if it outlines our options.Thanks for your comments - I dont have a problem paying a realistic amount of money ($60 a year for the last 4 years which is the texas statute of limitations for debt claims) - but they are asking for something far more than this!
