About this episode
A homeowner started with $977 in unpaid HOA assessments and ultimately lost ownership of his home. Eric Glazer follows the progression from the original balance through collection costs, attorney fees, a judgment and a foreclosure sale, explaining the financial story behind the headline.
The discussion looks at what happens to an outstanding mortgage when an association forecloses and why an auction bid of about $8,000 does not necessarily mean an HOA bought the home for that amount. Eric examines why the auction price alone does not describe the full financial picture.
Florida State Representative David Borrero joins by phone for a conversation about board education, changes following the Champlain Towers South tragedy, and the reforms he believes should come next. This is Season 4, Episode 28, which aired September 20, 2026.
