Full Breakdown
California Civil Code 5600-5740 governs HOA assessments in Victorville. Regular assessment increases above 20 percent of the prior year and special assessments exceeding 5 percent of the current-year gross budgeted expenses require approval by a majority of a quorum of members under Civil Code 5605. Assessments become delinquent 15 days after the due date, at which point interest (up to 12 percent per year) and late fees (up to 10 percent of the delinquent amount or 10 dollars) can be imposed under Civil Code 5650. Before initiating a lien the association must send a 30-day pre-lien notice by certified mail and offer a payment plan under Civil Code 5655. Foreclosure of an HOA lien for delinquent assessments is limited to debts at least 1,800 dollars or 12 months old under Civil Code 5720. Owners have a right to an internal dispute resolution process before any lien is recorded.
