        "text": "Special assessments are additional, one-time fees levied by an HOA on its members, typically for unforeseen major repairs or capital improvements not covered by the regular budget or reserve funds. While distinct from recurring HOA fees, they can significantly impact your investment's immediate profitability and cash flow. It's important to review HOA meeting minutes and financial disclosures to identify any upcoming or pending special assessments before purchasing a property.",
