A homeowner fell behind on his HOA assessments. The starting balance was less than $1,000.
Then came collection costs, attorney fees, a judgment and eventually a foreclosure sale.
He lost ownership of his home.
But the viral headline leaves out an important part of the story.
This Sunday on Condo Craze & HOAs, Eric Glazer follows the money and explains what actually happens when an association forecloses, what happens to the mortgage, and why an $8,000 auction bid does NOT necessarily mean an HOA just bought a house for $8,000.
Then Florida State Representative David Borrero joins us live by phone to discuss board education, what has changed since the Champlain Towers South tragedy, and what he believes should come next.
Rep. Borrero currently represents Florida House District 111 in Miami-Dade and has served in the House since 2020. The Hialeah lawmaker just announced he’s running for Senate District 39, the northwest Miami-Dade seat fellow Republican Bryan Ávila left this month after Byron Donalds named him his gubernatorial running mate.
