About this publication

HOA Weekly is a subscription publication covering the state legislation, court rulings, and compliance requirements that govern community associations across the United States.

HOA-relevant law is public but unsynthesized. Every state's HOA statute is on its legislature's website. State appellate courts publish their rulings. Real estate divisions issue regulatory guidance regularly. The problem is not access. It is synthesis: hundreds of government sites, thousands of pages of statute, no central reference for the property managers, board members, and association attorneys who have to act on this information.

HOA Weekly closes that gap.

What is covered

The publication is built as a 51-state by 25-topic matrix. Every state, including the District of Columbia, gets a dedicated page on each of 25 core topics: governing statutes, reserve studies, fining authority, board elections, records inspection, architectural review, short-term rentals, solar rights, EV charging, condo safety inspections, insurance requirements, estoppel certificates, and others. At full build-out this produces 1,275 evergreen reference pages, each updated as the underlying law changes.

The publication also covers:

• Bill explainers when state legislatures introduce or pass HOA-relevant legislation
• Court ruling briefs when state appellate courts issue opinions affecting community associations
• A weekly Tuesday brief covering the most consequential changes of the past seven days
• Multi-state comparison reports for property management firms operating across jurisdictions

Who it serves

The audience is operational: property managers responsible for compliance across one or more associations, HOA board members and treasurers facing decisions with real liability exposure, community association attorneys, and multi-state property management firms whose work spans several legal regimes.

The publication is not written for homeowners in dispute with their association, for journalists covering housing policy, or for academics studying common-interest communities. The primary reader is the person who has to make a defensible operational decision before the end of the week.

Editorial standards

Every factual claim in HOA Weekly links to a primary source: the state legislature's bill page, the court's published opinion, the agency's official guidance. When a fact cannot be verified against a primary source, the article says so explicitly. Citations are not garnish. They are the product.

HOA Weekly does not accept advertising, sponsorships, or sponsored content. The publication is funded entirely by subscription revenue. This follows the same editorial logic used by Politico Pro, Bloomberg Law, and similar B2B intelligence publications: paid subscribers fund accuracy without the conflicts that come from selling advertiser attention.

Articles are bylined "HOA Weekly Staff." The publication is the author. Individual contributors do not receive personal credit, in keeping with the institutional editorial voice used by publications of record.

Every state-topic compliance page is reviewed at least every six months. When a statute or rule changes, the affected pages are updated within seven days. The "last reviewed" date is visible on every page.

Subscriptions

HOA Weekly offers three tiers:

• A free tier with the weekly Tuesday brief headline and roundup, plus public previews of every compliance page
• A single-state subscription at $99 per month for full access to one state's compliance content and analysis
• A multi-state firm subscription at $249 per month for full access to all 50 states plus the District of Columbia

Not a law firm

HOA Weekly reports on the law and explains how it works. It does not give legal advice, and reading or subscribing does not create an attorney-client relationship. Every article describes the law in general terms. How the law applies to one association depends on facts and documents we have never seen. Readers deciding anything with real consequences should talk to a licensed attorney in their state. The full policy, in plain English, is at Not legal advice.
