Can a home owners association invoice you for dues that were due 5 months before closing on the home?
They should have collected this from the seller at closing. Usually the title company will contact the HOA to find out how much is due. The year's dues should be prorated according to what portion of the year that the seller owned the home and what portion that the buyer owned it. It is possible that the buyer gets a credit for partial HOA dues on the closing statement, then must pay a full year's dues to the HOA. Or the title company may pay dues directly to the HOA out of funds from closing. Check with the title company to find out what exactly happened at closing.

Depends on the laws of the state; the HOA should have its attorney check this. But the question is how did the sale occur without the HOA providing a standard letter certifying that all dues were paid to date of sale unless your state does not require this? The HOA should have filed its lien against the unit prior to the sale, too, if state law granted it that right.
