Q: How do I get copies of my HOA’s accounting records in Idaho if I suspect wrongdoing or incorrect bookkeeping?
I believe they are not assessing dues properly, misappropriating funds, in breach of contract for performance, and paying a bookkeeper that is incompetent inflated and unreported compensation.
A: I really enjoy questions like this because I champion the rights of home owners in an HOA. An HOA is kind of like being in the mafia, but instead of being a "soldier," treated with some respect, you're treated with disrespect and ridicule. You should get a copy of the HOA's regulations and read them. If they are in violation of their own regulations, the best way to handle it is by hiring an attorney to write a demand letter to the Board, advising them that they need to comply and to send you a copy of the most current, Regulations.
