This summer, Rogers eventually got an eviction notice. She moved out of her "forever" home and is living with a friend.Rogers hired Chapel Hill-based attorney Jim White to fight for her home back.White said Rogers did receive letters from a law office but she thought they were junk mail and the law requires more notification than that.
Rogers' HOA, Irish Creek Section 2 Owners Association, declined to comment on the issue, citing the pending lawsuit. "We've had so many situations of people; these are their neighbors, they knew where they lived. Somebody could have knocked on the door. Somebody could have called and they did not do that," White said.
He explained HOAs have just as much power as banks in foreclosures, which means they don't need to go in front of a judge. And often when the issue with the HOA is not over a large amount of money, it can become increasingly challenging for homeowners to find a lawyer to represent them.
