BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2026 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A Boca Raton homeowners association is suing to foreclose on a townhome near Boca Club Boulevard, claiming the owner racked up more than $9,300 in unpaid dues, interest and fees. The Boca Golf and Tennis Townhomes Homeowners Association, also known as The Greens at Boca Golf and Tennis Townhomes Homeowners Association, filed the foreclosure complaint this week in Palm Beach County Circuit Court. The homeowner: Dawn M. Perez.
According to the complaint, the HOA says Perez stopped keeping up with monthly assessments, and the unpaid balance — along with special assessments, late fees and interest — continues to grow. The association’s attorney, Daniel Wasserstein of Wasserstein, P.A. in Boca Raton, sent Perez a notice of intent to file a lien in January, followed by a notice of intent to foreclose in April. When the bill went unpaid, the HOA started legal action.
The amount owed back in April? $9,328.79. The breakdown includes more than $7,700 in monthly and special assessments dating back to June 2025, plus interest accruing at 18% per year, attorney’s fees, and costs tied to recording the lien. Under Florida’s homeowners association law, associations are allowed to charge interest and fees on delinquent accounts and can pursue both a lien foreclosure and a separate damages claim to recover what’s owed.
The lawsuit asks a judge to order Perez to pay, or allow the property to be sold so the HOA can take the money it is owed.
Why did the HOA allow the unpaid amount get so large before they filed the lien. Should have been done much sooner
Is this type of story really “news”? Seems more like shaming someone for entertainment.
