Two different accounts are required to create an initial association account. 

ÀÖ¾ºÌåÓýÈ«Õ¾ first type of account is called the HOA account.  This account is for the association and registration will provide you with a registration number (HOA.0000XXXXX). 

ÀÖ¾ºÌåÓýÈ«Õ¾ second type of account is called the Designated Agent account.  ÀÖ¾ºÌåÓýÈ«Õ¾ Designated Agent is the individual that the board of an association designates to be responsible for the registration and subsequent renewal of an association’s registration with the Division. ÀÖ¾ºÌåÓýÈ«Õ¾re are no prerequisites for registering as a Designated Agent, nor is there any fee associated with the registration for a Designated Agent account.  Similar to the HOA account, registration will provide you with a number for the Designated Agent account (DA.0000XXXXX). For more information on creating a Designated Agent account, see “How Do I Become A Designated Agentâ€� section below.
