Legal Liability & The Building Envelope Ep.50

As more HOAs shift responsibility for key building components (like windows, decks and roofs) to individual owners, a critical question emerges: does this actually reduce risk, or simply redistribute it? In this month's episode, we'll explore the hidden legal and financial implications behind this growing trend, and what boards and community managers need to know to protect their communities.

 

In this episode, we cover:

• When HOA boards can still be held liable for building failures
• What "duty of care" really means in practice
• How lack of documentation can weaken your position in disputes
• What to watch for when updating CC&Rs
