Re: message from AHRC -- we will return!

[Guest guest]

For those that are familiar with the web site " ahrc.com " - American

Homeowners Resource Center, it has been broken into which is why the site has

been

down for such a long time. AHRC has sent the following message asking that

this

be forwarded;

Dear AHRC subscribers, friends and viewers:

Because of the nature of this break in we cannot provide any

details. However, with the work of our providers and administrators

we are making progress and will have all of the AHRC websites back

online shortly.

We appreciate your patience and will keep you posted.

Please forward this message to all your networks and groups.

Thank you.

AHRC consists of a group of advocates fighting for the rights of homeowners

who live in homeowner associations. Most people are unaware that in the

purchase of a condominium or any deed-restricted property, many basic rights

are forfeited. An example of just one of those rights given up is the right to

judicial foreclosure. This means if an association sees fit whether in error

or not, they have the legal right to take a home in a foreclosure without

going to court [non-judicial foreclosure]. Some of these foreclosures have

been due to accounting errors on the part of the association. Homeowners

battling both mold and their associations have lost their homes in non-judicial

foreclosures. These homes were in turn sold to new buyers that others profited

from.

The only recourse a homeowner has in a non-judicial foreclosure [if they can

even afford an attorney at this point] is to sue the association. By the

time their case is even heard, their home is long gone. Because of the endless

supply of funds available to association attorneys there are very few

plaintiff attorneys willing to get involved in homeowner association cases.

AHRC and

others have been fighting for over a decade to stop non-judicial forecloses.

In another area of homeowner rights, I have followed a lawsuit with a

series of articles on AHRC that I have written on behalf of a group of seniors

at

Leisure World. This is a case whereby these residents challenged their

association when they were refused their right to inspect the association books

and records. The seniors recently prevailed in court. This decision has now

impacted all other litigants in HOA's throughout California as well as impacted

all homeowners in California HOAs. There is now case law reinforcing

compliance with the Civil Codes of the -Stirling Act. This would include

the

right of homeowners to obtain books and records relating to mold problems at

their HOA.
