That’s nothing. I live in Lincoln Place in Scottsdale, an HOA which is charging .3% of the sales price of a home which they collect at close of escrow. This is IN ADDITION to the normal $300 transfer fee for the property manager! That’s $3,000 to $4,000 even in these times (it use to be $4,500 but house prices have fallen). More importantly, it is not recorded and was never voted on. The Board justifies it as a means to avoid raising owner dues.
