REPRESENTATION FOR COMMUNITY AND HOMEOWNERS’ ASSOCIATIONS
The majority of the homes in Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach, Little River, Murrells Inlet, Surfside Beach, Pawley’s Island and all along the Grand Strand are in homeowners' associations or community associations. At McCutchen Vaught Geddie & Hucks, P.A., we represent community associations and homeowners' associations in the legal matters that prevent them from running smoothly.
In South Carolina, most HOA bylaws, covenants and/or master deeds include articles stating that the HOA can assess the owners' property and demand payment. If payment is not received, the HOA can file a lien against the property and then foreclose on it. We assist HOAs with all collections' matters.
When we represent HOAs, we review their documents, and ensure there is power to assess and power to lien. When we know that is in place, the HOA sends our lawyers information on each delinquent homeowner, and we can begin the collection process.

Representing HOAs in Foreclosure
COLLECTING HOA FEES AND ASSESSMENTS
HOAs use assessments to maintain their common property, including the pool, pool house, street and lights. When homeowners fail to pay their assessments, the community property deteriorates. Filing the lien and initiating the legal process can be time-consuming. Our firm manages each step of the process, so business owners can focus on running their businesses successfully.
Our long experience and local roots give clients an edge. We know the players in construction and development and the tendencies of judges in Horry County, Georgetown County and other jurisdictions. We understand when it is important to find common ground and move projects forward and when it is prudent to stand ground and fight.
