Obtain copies of all registrations, do not trust that information is being relayed or properly filed. A NW community association failed to update my address when I called to notify them that I would be moving out and would be renting out my condo. They then allowed the tenant to list her personal contact information as my contact information in a Tenant Occupied Condo. The association conveniently no longer has record of a) my phone call requesting my contact information be changed nor b) my original registration when it was an owner occupied property. The HOA moved into foreclosure proceedings on my property even though they regularly received payment from me (it was just for a lower amount as they had not communicated the increase in dues to me). They stated that they didn't know how to contact me and so they had to engage legal proceedings to collect the discrepancy in dues. Be very cautious of communications with HOA's.
