Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California

Re: real estate power of attorney for hoa

Yes. When and HOA is first formed, the governing documents like the Bylaws or the CC&Rs set forth the qualifications to become a board member. The only way to change those documents is by a vote of the membership. If the documents say that board members must be owners of record, a power of attorney will do you no good except in the circumstances where the owner is a corporation. In that case, the corporation can be represented on the board by an authorized officer or director.

Yes, if the governing documents support such a restriction.

Good Luck!
