WHEN is the hand-over to take place? Usually it's in a certain time frame or when a certain percentage of homes/units are sold.

It's still his ballgame. If he has not fulfilled his builder/developer obligations, you and the other owners can take him to court.

More info is needed.

6 units 3 owned ind. he owns one and rents 2 he and his partners pay hoa for the 2 rented. He is like a defacto pres. no other members on the board. I has been like this for one year.

You did not answer the question. WHEN is the hand-over to a member-run HOA supposed to take place? You will find the answer in either your CCR's or other paperwork. (sales agreement, deed, etc.)

Right now, everything - all governance - is under his control.

This is my take having looked up some stuff. After the developer rented last 2 units we should have had ameeting to elect board members and for them to submitt an annual budget is this correct. Right now the developer pretty much makes up an annual statement when pressed by me and of course he spends all the revenue.
