Organized by topic and written in plain English, Texas Homeowners Association Law provides a straightforward explanation of the rights, duties, and responsibilities of Texas homeowners associations and homeowners and it answers the most common questions that arise in association-governed communities in Texas including:

Texas Homeowners Association Law includes more than twenty-five sample forms for use by Texas homeowners associations and homeowners, as well as a table of authorities and subject index to assist readers in quickly identifying applicable topics by key words or subject matter. In addition, with more than 2,500 annotations and citations to Texas and Federal statutes and appellate court decisions, Texas Homeowners Association Law is also an indispensable tool for property managers, realtors, and attorneys who work with association-governed communities in Texas.
