About this listen

Welcome to The Common Elements, the podcast where we explore all things HOAs. Whether you’re a board member, homeowner, or just curious, I’ll provide the tips, insights and laughs you need to navigate community living. I’m based in Minnesota, and most of what I discuss will focus on HOAs here. Keep in mind that community association laws vary by state, but there’s plenty of overlap for listeners everywhere!
