XBrit,

Scenario is, the house is worth $600k and the guy has a first mortgage for $650k. He owes the HOA $5k. Are you saying that if the bank forecloses, we may NEVER get our $5k?

In California, that is correct. Of course, the assessment debt is also a personal obligation of the debtor, and you can take him/her to small claims court, but most in that situation may not have assets worth pursuing unless you can get a judgment and garnish his/her wages.

What part of the state are you in?
