About this title

Review

This is a must read for every director serving on the Board of an Arizona Home Owners Association. HOA conflicts are emotional - they involve our homes and neighbors - therefore, we treat those subjects with significant importance in our everyday life. This book presents several compelling subjects, but most importantly, it takes us on a tour of effective listening and compromise skills. Those skills can help us to navigate through emotionally laden rough waters. The book is also a comprehensive guide to the technicalities of serving as a director on an HOA board.

Whether you are lobbying for change or want to serve on your Home Owner Association board of directors, this book is a must read. It's rich in content and its' resources provide a great understanding as to the hierarchy of state laws and their relationship with the HOA's CC&R's, and how those relationships affect a board members ability to serve and make educated decisions. As a Realtor for 22 years I see a push-pull relationship between homeowners and HOA boards. Many conflicts could be resolved by both parties taking a greater interest in their understanding of the laws and community rules. This book is a well written educational piece that can be read cover to cover, or can be used for a law or subject specific resource.

Having served on a Board of Directors of a Home Owners Association for over 20 years, I have held every position at some point during my tenure on the Board, and headed up numerous committees. I have served with Bill Travis for more than 10 years and found his knowledge and insight to be invaluable. He has managed to bring his years of experience together in this book to provide his readers with the framework for becoming a Director and serving on an HOA Board. Anyone who currently serves on a Board will find reading this book a necessity and great resource material.

As a Home owner and working with the HOA at times, this book is Eye opening. It's surprising how much info is in this book, and how important it is to have this knowledge to properly make decisions for the entire community. Makes you appreciate what our board members have to deal with. This also shows me how important it is to know who you're voting for. I recommend all homeowners read this book to better educate yourself before making complaints.
