Question: s there a Grandfather type law in AZ regarding HOA controlling house paint color within reason of the community standard? I am being told that my house color is no longer "approved" and I must repaint whole house (instead of touching up the wood trim with current color). This is in Scottsdale Ranch.
Answer: The first thing that needs to be done is have an attorney with experience with HOA laws in Arizona (and experience with CC&Rs) review your community rules and regulations. There was a similar case in El Mirage in which an HOA required nearly 1200 residents to paint their homes. The HOA stated they were protecting home values. Many in opposition of this demand by the HOA (including a couple State Legislators) did not believe this demand was within the power of the HOA. There has also been little guidance from the Legislature on this matter. If you haven’t done this already, I would suggest attending the next HOA meeting and voicing your concerns with the HOA board. Again, an attorney who has experience with this sort of situation will be your best advocate.
