• "Thank you for the follow-up letter and questionaire. In review of the questions and my experience with your office, I have very little to say about anything other than Jennifer Srock. She represented herself and your office in a most professional manner making sure the follow-up systems were in place. I was kept abreast of the changing market conditions and what was expected of me as the transaction progressed. Her attention to detail and taking the extra minute to make sure those items that sometimes fall between the cracks did not! The rough parts of the negotiation process were handled in a very diplomatic way without hostile feelings or statements. this is surely a sign of a mature salesperson; keeping everything business when it would be so easy to get personal. If i had a real estate need in Casa Grande or knew of someone looking in the Casa Grande market, I would deinately recommend Jennifer Srock."

Who does the HOA (Home Owner's Association) of a subdivision try to collect the outstanding past dues from when the owner forecloses on their home? Unfortunately, some are trying to collect from the new home owner. I have had buyers come to me with this situation so I suspect there are more consumers facing this issue.

It usually comes in the form of a letter to the new homeowner stating that now that they are the new owner of the home, they are the new owner of the past due HOA fees as well. This is not true. Do not pay off an HOA delinquency that doesn't belong to you.

The HOA should not be contacting the new home owner regarding old dues. In fact, during the escrow period of the transaction to purchase the home, the title company requires the HOA to provide an updated statement of all dues which are to be disclosed on the settlement statement prior to closing on the purchase of the home. Any dues, costs or fees which arise after the new buyer takes possession of the property, is the responsibility of the previous owner or the HOA for not providing an accurate statement.

A.R.S. 33-1807 (B). At a foreclosure sale, all liens subordinate to the mortgage, including delinquent HOA fees, are generally extinguished. The lender nor the new buyer of the home are responsible for delinquent HOA fees. The delinquent HOA fees follow the owner, not the property nor it's new owner(s). The HOA's only recourse is to pursue the previous owner to collect their past due fees.

1. Reduce- This may be the hardest to adopt. Minimizing how many resources we consume is the foundation for living a greener lifestyle. What are some ways to help reduce waste?

• Turning off lights when you’re not using them and use energy efficient light bulbs.
• Check to see if your power companies offers energy efficient usage plans and energy saving tips.
• Shut down your work computer at the end of every day.
• Do away with running water while you're brushing your teeth.
• Buy products that contain environmentally friendly packaging.
• Instead of buying something you're not going to use very often, see if you can borrow it from someone you know.
• Try to reduce car use by carpooling, taking a bus, roller blading, riding a bike or walking.
• Use a computer. Many newspapers and magazines are online now. Print only what you need.
• Opt out of getting junk mail that you just throw away.

Reducing helps conservation efforts, decreases landfull waste and energy use which results in a cleaner environment. Striving for better choices helps conserve our natural resources.

2. Reuse- Can you repair something damaged? Can you donate something you're finished with? Before you "trash" something, think of how you might get more out of it.

• Use silverware and dishes that can be cleaned and reused instead of plasticware, styrofoam or paper plates that get thrown away.
• Store food in reusable containers.
  
• Metal cans and plastic containers can be used for storing items.
• Donate clothes, furniture, toys and "garage sale items" that didn't sell.
• Turn old shirts into pajamas or cleaning rags.
• Some supermarkets recycle plastic shopping bags. Turn yours in. Better yet, bring your own cloth shopping bags for your groceries.
• Many junk removal companies donate items to charities, repair items, and recycle.
• Use all writing paper on both sides.

3. Recycle- Make new products out of old products and buy products that contain recycled materials. Recycling reduces the amount of garbage thrown away by 25%-50%.

• Composting kitchen waste is healthy for the soil therefore enhancing plants in your landscaping and less waste will go into the landfill.
• Check your state's Department of Environmental Quality for recycling programs.
• Check to see if your city has a recycling program you can participate in and aks for a list of what they recycle.
