North Dakota HOA Law Changes 2021–2025: What Every Board Needs to Know

Overview of North Dakota HOA Law Changes 2021–2025

North Dakota condominiums are governed by Chapter 47-04.1 of the North Dakota Century Code, which covers association administration, bylaws, assessments, and liens. No real, verifiable HOA-specific legislative changes were identified for North Dakota during 2021–2025. Some secondary sources reference political-sign and EV-charging provisions, but these claims could not be corroborated with a bill number, session, or effective date from primary legislative sources — boards should not treat them as confirmed law.

What This Means for North Dakota Boards

Because no confirmed statutory changes were found, an association's obligations continue to be defined primarily by Chapter 47-04.1 (for condominiums) and by each community's own declaration and bylaws (for general HOAs, which have no dedicated comprehensive statute in North Dakota). Boards should not assume newer protections common in other states — solar rights, EV charging mandates, fine due process requirements, or financial disclosure mandates — apply in North Dakota unless their own governing documents provide them.

Board Action Checklist

• Confirm your condominium association's practices align with Chapter 47-04.1's administration, bylaw, assessment, and lien provisions
• Do not rely on secondary-source claims about political-sign or EV-charging rights without confirming a specific bill and effective date via ndlegis.gov
• Review your own declaration and bylaws for meeting, voting, and enforcement procedures rather than assuming a statewide statutory standard exists for general HOAs
• Consult North Dakota counsel before assuming any statutory right or requirement not found in Chapter 47-04.1 or your governing documents
