One of the most common sources of conflict between tenants and homeowners associations (HOAs) is improper parking. Often, it's not due to bad intentions but rather a lack of awareness about the community’s internal rules — and it can end up being costly.
Across Florida, more and more communities are tightening enforcement of parking regulations, especially in restricted areas like visitor spots, green zones, yellow curbs, or fire lanes. In many cases, tenants are simply unaware that these areas are off-limits and park there out of convenience or lack of guidance.
What used to be handled with a verbal warning may now result in hefty fines or even vehicle towing, causing frustration and unnecessary expenses.
At Bahia Property Management, we continue to emphasize the importance of both tenants and owners staying informed about HOA rules, especially when it comes to parking. A small oversight can escalate quickly if internal guidelines are not followed. Prevention remains the best way to ensure smooth community living.
