Establishing an HOA in Illinois

The establishment and operation of homeowners associations in Illinois are governed by state laws.

In either case, Sabuco, Beck, Hansen, Massino & Pollack, P.C, can guide you in the steps needed to form your HOA, which generally include the following:

• Establishing the business structure your HOA will operate under;
• Choosing covenants, conditions, and restrictions (CC&Rs) for your HOA;
• Establishing fees, bylaws, and procedures for HOA meetings;
• Electing officers and board members qualified to oversee operations of your HOA;
• Guiding officials in their duties under the Illinois Compiled Statutes.
