Legislative initiatives promoted by the Colorado HOA Forum will not:
Use taxpayers
Inhibit free, competitive and open business practices
Materially impose any net cost on HOAs and their home owners
Negatively influence home owners from volunteering
All State supported HOA services must be funded by HOAs and other user fees/HOA registration fees.
Improve the HOA Registration process to collect and publish on State HOA Office web site: each HOA's
property management company; email address; a certification that all Board members read their own HOA
governing documents and the State HOA Office's most current public presentation; and transmit to the
Office copies of all official documents required by DORA to be provided home buyers. The contract to Buy
and Sell Real Estate lists these documents.
Revive the HOA property manager licensing program that was vetoed in 2019. Improve upon Colorado
legislation that licenses HOA property managers (PM): require PMs to provide detailed receipts to home
owners paying fees and a statement on invoice and in contracts with HOAs indicating that such work is
unique and extraordinary with the sale of a home and not previously paid for with HOA dues.
Require Realtors and HOA home buyers to certify they received and read mandatory legally required home
closing documentation.
Legislation to extend requirements of licensed property managers/HOA law to time shares w.HOAs
Term limits on HOA Board members when others are willing to serve
Limit the amount of special assessments without homeowner vote
Preclude HOAs from entering into any non-routine litigation without homeowner approval
Require HOA rental property owners to utilize part of every rent payment to pay HOA dues
Election and voting reform including banning default of proxies to Boards for any reason and limits on
absentee owners in proxy voting
Disclosure of Metro District debt on property as part of home closing process
Disclosure of "super lien" impact on home foreclosure’m a paragraph. Drag me to add paragraph to your block, write your own text and edit me.
Prohibit the use of non-disclosure agreements for Board members that preclude Board members from discussing non-confidential information with fellow home owners
