: California Condo & HOA LawWhat Rights Does a "Significant Other" Have in an HOA or Condo Association?
Here is the question sent to me.
"Our Board is in dispute as to exactly what the rights are of an individual who has been named by an owner to be his/her ?Significant Other?. This ?Significant Other? is not married nor is an owner within the HOA. They do not cohabitate within or outside the HOA. Can a ?Significant Other? serve on committees?. Can a ?Significant Other? run for the Board of Directors? Can they be afforded all the rights and privileges that an owner has without the benefit of ownership?"
The Association documents (in California, the CC&Rs or Bylaws) generally state whether a director has to be a member of the association, or not. They may state who can serve on committees. "Significant others" are not guaranteed the rights of the member they live with.
