Here in Olympia, Washington, I own multiple rental properties. Two of my houses are in a neighborhood where the Homeowners Association fell apart and was not active from 1998 until 2006. Recently, in 2007 the newly reformed board sent letters to all property owners stating everyone owed dues for the period of 2007 back to 1998. The dues are only $30, which isn't the problem.
Can the board legally invoice for unpaid dues that were never previously invoiced during the period when no board existed?![]()
