    Court documents report the neighbor confronted the pastor and his family in front of his home after he made complaints about her to their homeowner’s association.

  • HOA board wants a cut of the community game money (NV) March 10, 2024
    Q: I live in a 55 and older community. We have a new HOA board and a new management company. The board has decided, based on information from this new management company that from here forward they will take 5 percent of the winnings from our clubs — poker, bunco and trivia. It’s my understanding this board is now also stating they are “registered” as a charity. They have told the organizers of these games that at the end of ...
  • Condo complex plans to join local business owners’ Las Vegas Grand Prix lawsuit (NV) March 5, 2024
    The battle between the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix and local businesses continues, this time with a condo complex near the race track.  The Meridian, located on Flamingo Road near Koval Lane, has 678 condos with about 2,500 residents.

  • HOA potlucks can be so complicated (NV) February 25, 2024
    Q: Are there any requirements for a potluck that would be held at the community clubhouse? I received three conflicting opinions. One individual stated that no homemade food is permitted in the clubhouse. Another individual said that a food handler’s license is required. A third indicated that a stove is required in the clubhouse. I’m confused. I did some research but couldn’t find anything. Thank you for shedding some light on this.    Read the article…………………………….
  • Homeowner gets bid but does not follow proper procedure (NV) February 19, 2024
    Q: One of the residents knows a company who provides barrier arm installation and requested we ask the company for a bid, which is totally fine in my opinion.  However, the problem stems from the resident bypassing the board and our management firm and directly contacting the company and not having it send the sealed bid to our management company to open at our meeting. Instead, the resident just passed out the bid to various other homeowners associaiton members.   Read ...

    Q: I have been the president of a very active and proactive board for some time now.

  • Residential Communities vs. Climate Change: Adjusting to the New Reality (NV)
    The reality of climate change is upon us. Weather patterns have changed, and seasons have been altered. We experience more intense heat, more frequent, destructive storms, wide-ranging wildfires, and more destructive cold.

  • Controlling Access to Your Building Keys, Fobs, & Door Codes
    Unless you live in Mayberry (and maybe even if you do), chances are you wouldn’t be comfortable leaving your house or going to bed and just leaving your front doors unlocked.
