SAN TAN VALLEY, Ariz. — As a single income household, Robert and Kristy Leatham find themselves spending a lot of family time at home.
Kristy is a nursing student and Robert is a law enforcement officer. While they still find time for their two kids, Robert says an ongoing dispute with his homeowners association could cost him his home.
“This is our home. This is where we want to raise our children,” he said. “I don’t want to lose it.”
It is common for HOA’s to contract with community management companies to oversee their day-to-day business dealings, like collecting HOA dues.
Earlier this year, the Leatham’s management company, a Tempe business called Associated Asset Management, placed a lien on the Leatham’s San Tan Valley home after the Leathams fell behind on their HOA dues.
