Purchasing a home is the biggest investment most people make in their lives. Adding a monthly HOA fee to that cost will increase your monthly expenses. However, the benefits of an HOA outweigh the costs for many individuals. Here are some tips to keep in mind as you explore different HOA communities.
• Research and compare communities based on their location, amenities, fees, rules, management, governance, and reputation
• Review the covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs), bylaws, meeting minutes, and any other important documents and information you can find on the communities
• Visit the communities and talk to residents to get their thoughts and feelings about the neighborhood
• Talk to your real estate agent to gather insight into the communities you are interested in
• Think through the pros and cons of living in an HOA community – taking needs, personal preferences, and budget into account

⏳ The countdown is on! ⏳

We are less than a month away from opening our new Oakland Branch, and we couldn't be more excited to share some progress photos!

The wood-paneled interior will be a design element unique to our Oakland Branch. Inspired by the natural beauty of Deep Creek Lake and its reputation as a mountain getaway, the wood finishes reflect the character, charm, and outdoor spirit that make Garrett County so special.

From helping families reach their financial goals to supporting local businesses and community organizations, we're looking forward to serving Garrett County even better.

Living in an HOA community comes with many pros and cons. Ultimately, determining whether the good outweighs the bad depends on what matters most to you in a home and a neighborhood.
Pros
• Lawncare and other landscaping are typically handled by a third party hired by the HOA
• Some HOAs cover utility costs and allow you to simplify your bills
• Access to amenities such as a pool, clubhouse, gym, tennis court, etc.
• Social activities and potentially a stronger sense of community
• A resource to help solve neighborhood disputes

Cons
• Monthly fees can be expensive if you are not able to take full advantage of what is offered
• Limit how a home’s exterior can be personalized
• Depending on the covenants, conditions, and restrictions, you may not be able to rent your home to someone else
• Potential for poor management of maintenance and/or finances

HOAs are legal entities set up as businesses or non-profits to create covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) and enforce them. CC&Rs often apply to such things as siding and roof colors and materials, parking restrictions, fencing specifications, landscaping, etc. An HOA’s standing as a legal entity allows the organization to enforce rules and issue punishments when they are not followed. Penalties can be strict for those who choose not to abide by the rules, including fines, lawsuits, or even a lien placed on the home.

There are several ways for an HOA to manage the money it receives from residents. Some HOA associations charge residents a little more so they can keep a large cash reserve to cover maintenance, repairs, and other expenses. Others might charge a smaller fee and then conduct special assessments when unexpected costs occur. There are pros and cons to each strategy. Residents will pay more each month when the HOA decides to keep a large cash reserve, but if the association chooses to keep a smaller cash reserve and a significant expense occurs, occupants could have to pay out a large sum of money at once.

A homeowner association (HOA) is an organization that sets and enforces rules for a group of homes, and also maintains the grounds in some or all areas of the neighborhood or building. They are commonly associated with planned or private neighborhoods, subdivisions, gated communities, condominiums, and townhome developments. There is usually a fee associated with living in a neighborhood managed by an HOA, which can range in cost depending on the area and the amenities provided.

While membership in most HOA communities is mandatory, there are also some that are voluntary. For example, a voluntary HOA community may choose to make certain amenities available only to members to incentivize membership. Ultimately, the decisions made by an HOA are decided by a board of directors, which is usually both made up of and elected by neighborhood residents.
