If you only pay a portion (paid in payments) of an assessment can the HOA put a lein against your property for the remaining amount ? There was no written/oral agreement as to when the remainder was to be paid or even how much the payments were to be.

BB5,

This would depend on your Associations governing documents. In addition to your CC&Rs, Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the governing documents would also include any Resolution passed by the Board about assessments. Sometimes it will also depend on the payment history of the individual.

If anyone can not make the full payment it is typically better to communicate with the Board first rather then have no communication and just send in a partial payment.

Our treasurer has permission to enter into agreed "terms" of payment, BUT if any payments are missed or late, then the boom is lowered.

Your utility company would shut you off if you just made partial payment, with no follow up on your part, so why should the HOA be any different?
