Which condominium document creates the homeowners association?

1. Articles of incorporation

2. Bylaws

3. Declaration of condominium

4. FAQs

The correct answer is: Articles of incorporation

The articles of incorporation has the primary responsibility for creating a homeowners association. This document formalizes the formation of the association as a corporation, covering its name, purposes, and legal structure. The other listed options may contain guidelines or rules for the operation of the association, but they do not establish the association itself. The bylaws provide the operating procedures, and the declaration of condominium outlines the rights and responsibilities of unit owners. The FAQs are a resource for common questions but do not hold any legal weight for creating the homeowners association.
