What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? FL
I've been trying to get a loan modification since Feb. Since then, my home is now in pre-foreclosure status. My HOA management company sent me a bill for $180, even though my dues were paid in full for the year. Their invoice only had "Attorney Fees" listed with the $180 charge. My HOA documents state they can only collect for annual dues and special assessments (which there were none). When questioned about the invoice and what the attorney fees were for, they told me they got their attorney involved because the name of my subdivision was listed with the foreclosure (as part of the address/location of my home). Are they legally allowed to do this? What involvement does their attorney have, especially since my annual dues were paid? Should I file a complaint with the state against the management company? Thanks for any and all help/advice anyone can offer.
