Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas

Home Owners Association past due fees

I bought a property at the Courthouse public Foreclosure sale March 2008. On Jan. 2009 I paide the HOA fee for this year. They sent past due fee of $910.00 in March from past owners with a deadline of March 26,2009. After writing to them 3 certified letters with no response. I sent payment.

Do they have written Law to charge for past due fees of previous owners when buying a Foreclousure? Thank you.

The homeowner's dues probably have priority over the foreclosed lien. The foreclosure only wipes out subordinate debt, thus the dues would still be outstanding.
