        "text": "HOA fees are generally not fixed and can increase over time. HOAs may raise fees to cover rising operational costs, unexpected repairs, or to fund reserve accounts for future large-scale projects like roof replacements or major renovations. These potential increases must be considered in your long-term investment strategy, as they can reduce future cash flow. Understanding an HOA's financial health and reserve study is a critical step in assessing this risk before purchasing an investment property.",
