Common area
Common area is property owned or maintained by the HOA for all owners—streets, clubhouses, pools, landscaping, and building exteriors in condos. Maintenance and insurance for common area come from assessments. CC&Rs define boundaries between common area and individual units.
These definitions are for general education only. They are not legal, financial, or tax advice. HOA rules vary by community and location—confirm details against your governing documents and qualified professionals before you act.
