Manager Isn’t ‘Debt Collector’ When Pursuing Assessments
Facts: A homebuyer purchased his home, situated in a community association, by a warranty deed that had no reference to the association's declaration.

Eventually, the association had its attorney send letters to the owner, attempting to collect the amounts owed.
