Recently, chronicmomlife.com published an article which explains the background of Iowa HOA laws in Iowa, focusing on how they were developed and how GoSov.com and chronicmomlife.com use the science of research to translate the laws for residents of or investors in HOA communities.
Iowa HOA laws are quite specific. Our application of the same methodology that scientists use, including an annotated bibliography of prior research data, helps us to gain a better understanding of just what the laws mean. We want to help you to understand what the laws mean, too. There are a few things that we do as we prepare our posts. The first thing that we do is collect the information that we need. We start with a search of basic information, so before we dive into HOA-specific resources, we do a Google search for the terms “Iowa HOA laws”. This tells us what the current experts in HOA law believe about the subject, and gives us some baseline information from which to dive deeper. From that search, we found the state of Iowa’s resources for HOA laws, explained more below. The second thing that we do is more in-depth research. We search larger directories of law throughout the state of Iowa, and nearby states. We also compile our findings from the Google search we mentioned first, above. This way, we are able to put together a comprehensive and annotated overview of HOA laws for Iowa. The next stage is to correlate and analyze our findings, which we do as we write the article, but you can certainly do it yourself, as well. The laws of Iowa’s HOAs may not change over years or decades, but they are updated periodically as needed. We are always diligent about checking to make certain that our resources are current. Many people don’t realize just how important it is to be extremely detail-oriented when researching HOA laws. Mistakes made out of haste can cost you time and money. It is our mission to ensure that the information we deliver to you is accurate and current.
