As a HOA member, why can't I park on Van Valkenburgh Lane, which is a HOA common area. In Batt v. Manchester Oaks, the Virginia Supreme Court ruled all HOA members have  a non-exclusive easement to  all HOA common areas. Therefore, our HOA can not discriminate and assign two spaces to the ungarage town home owners,

    You can park there assuming you are a HOA member. Every HOA member has a non-exclusive easement to common areas.

    After the Telegraph Square case I can't believe our HOA has not give up on this topic. Denying HOA members access to common areas is going to bankrupt the HOA.

    Thank you for getting this site started. It's clear Clea & Margo should not be controlling the information. It's crazy how one neighbor is towing another neighbor for using a common area.

    Our HOA and the seller are defrauding the Federal Government and the VA (if the buyer uses a VA loan) by representing their unit has 2 dedicated parking spaces.

The Garageless Town Homes On Van Valkenburgh Lane Parking Spaces Are Not Deeded & Are Not Being Taxed By Alexandria City

  Good afternoon, - I am in the Office of Real Estate Assessments.  We have the responsibility to value all real property in the City every year at its fair market value for taxation.  Real property is the interests, benefits, and rights inherent in the ownership of physical property (the land and all things attached to the land by people). The Office of Real Estate Assessments does not approve documents recorded in the Land Records, but we will value property based upon any changes to the rights of property owners made by the legal recordings.  We will change a property's value if the legal recordings are determined to impact value and if we can demonstrate the adjustments necessary to the property value using market sales. I reviewed the properties along Van Valkenburgh to see if we were assessing any parking spaces or making market adjustments for parking spaces outside of garages. We are not valuing any parking spaces in the common areas for Potomac Yard Homeowne...
