Palm Springs HOAs: Unveiling the Mysteries of Monthly Dues🌴🌴🌴
By Krisie Cook, Windermere Real Estate
The HOA is how much?!?
Have you ever questioned why HOA fees in the desert can reach up to $1500 and more!? The world of Homeowners Associations (HOAs) in the Greater Palm Springs area is a diverse one. Here, these fees can range from a cozy zero to a whopping $1500 and beyond. Join us on a journey to unravel the world of HOAs in our beautiful desert communities.
What does the HOA include?
HOA dues can vary wildly based on the amenities and services offered to property owners. Like snowflakes, no two HOAs are exactly alike. Condo communities typically come with heftier dues compared to single-family home communities. These fees usually cover exterior building insurance, maintenance (walls, roofs, and painting), and shared amenities such as pools, spas, clubhouses, trash collection, and sometimes even basic cable TV. 🏠 🏠 🏠
Freedom of No HOA:
Believe it or not, there are a lot of communities in the desert with NO HOA. Imagine a place where homeowners enjoy the liberty to express their creativity, unrestrained by the confines of an HOA. You can even paint your house PINK if that’s your desire. This environment offers more control over your monthly expenses and the flexibility to personalize your property. However, this freedom might lead to clashing aesthetics among neighbors and potential disputes that affect the community’s overall charm.
HOAs with Fees of $100-$500:
In many Coachella Valley neighborhoods, mid-range HOA fees are prevalent. These HOAs come with sets of rules and regulations aimed at maintaining a harmonious community appearance. Expect restrictions on exterior colors and architectural styles. The added bonus? Many of these HOAs offer gated security, enhancing the sense of safety and exclusivity. 🔒
HOAs Exceeding $500-1500+: Country Clubs and Exclusive Living
When HOA fees surge past $500, you’re likely delving into the realm of luxury country club life. These prestigious areas offer a life of luxury with top-notch amenities such as golf courses, tennis courts, spa facilities, and concierge services. Many country club communities even include cable and Wi-Fi, providing substantial savings. Additionally, higher HOA fees often include full landscaping services right up to your doorstep, making them ideal for snowbirds who are only here for a few months each year. ⛳🎾🏌️♀️
