California HOA Conflicts of Interest: What Homeowners Must Watch For

In this episode of HOA HELL, attorney Michael Kushner explains how conflicts of interest arise naturally inside California HOAs and why they only become a serious problem when boards fail to disclose them or handle them correctly. Kushner breaks down what a conflict of interest legally is, how it appears in real-world HOA decision making, what the Davis-Stirling Civil Code and Corporations Code require from directors, and what homeowners can do to uncover and challenge conflicted decisions. 🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: ✅ How the law defines a “conflict of interest.” ✅ The legal difference between abstaining and recusal. ✅ How conflicts of interest commonly appear in most HOAs. ✅ How to use Civil Code 5200 record requests to detect undisclosed conflicts. ✅ What steps homeowners can take when they find red flags. Kushner explains why conflicts of interest are serious only when directors fail to deal with them properly, how bad optics and secrecy can be as damaging as intentional wrongdoing, and why transparency and proper recusal protect both the HOA and individual directors. 🔔 Subscribe for more full-length episodes and shorts to help you fight back against abusive HOA practices. 📚 Tired of your HOA’s abuse?
