CommunityPay has not verified a state-specific statutory resale certificate regime in Wyoming. Disclosure follows a non-statutory estoppel workflow. The 13 items below reflect standard title company and lender expectations, not legal requirements specific to any particular association.
- Current periodic assessment amount and any unpaid or delinquent assessments
- Pending or approved special assessments
- Reserve fund balance and designated projects
- Most recent balance sheet and income/expense statement
- Current operating budget
- Insurance coverage provided for the benefit of owners
- Pending lawsuits, unsatisfied judgments, or threatened litigation
- Board composition, meeting frequency, and governance status
- Declaration, bylaws, and rules and regulations
- Capital expenditures approved or anticipated for current and next two fiscal years
- Transfer fees, move-in/move-out fees, or other charges upon sale
- Known violations of the governing documents or applicable codes
- Right of first refusal or other restraints on transfer
Industry incumbents (HomeWiseDocs, CondoCerts) charge residents $250–$400 per resale certificate.
Wyoming does not cap RC preparation fees by statute. With CommunityPay, the board issues the certificate directly from live ledger data — eliminating the third-party fee entirely. Residents typically save $250–$400 per closing.

Applicable Statutes
All Wyoming authorities →
Statute of Repose — Improvements to Real Property
No action for property damage, personal injury, or wrongful death arising from defective or unsafe conditions in construction of improvements to real property may be brought more than 10 years after substantial completion. If injury occurs during year 9, one additional year is allowed. Wyoming has no mandatory right-to-cure or pre- litigation notice requirement for construction defects.
Nonprofit Corporation Act — Notice of Meeting
Requires written notice of member meetings stating the place, date, and time. For annual meetings, notice must describe matters to be voted upon. The Nonprofit Corporation Act provides the default meeting and notice framework for Wyoming HOAs and condominium associations.
Nonprofit Corporation Act — Board of Directors
All corporate powers are exercised by or under authority of the board of directors. Business and affairs are managed under board direction. Applies to HOAs and condominium associations organized as nonprofit corporations in the absence of HOA-specific board governance statutes.
Condominium Ownership Act — Condominium Ownership Recognized
Recognizes condominium ownership of real property in Wyoming. Establishes that ownership consists of a separate fee simple estate in an individual air space unit plus an undivided fee simple interest in common elements. The separate estate and common ownership are inseparable for the period prescribed by the declaration.
Condominium Ownership Act — Definitions
Defines key condominium terms: individual air space unit, general common elements (land, foundations, walls, roofs, corridors, central services), limited common elements, condominium unit, and declaration. The entire Condominium Ownership Act consists of only four sections.
Condominium Ownership Act — Tax Assessment, Recording, Covenants
Each condominium unit is assessed and taxed separately. Tax liens are confined to individual units. Declaration must be recorded with the county clerk. Mandatory membership in an association, payment of assessed charges, and appointment of an attorney-in-fact are covenants running with the land binding all owners and successors. This is the legal basis for assessment authority, though there is no statutory lien priority provision — priority depends on individual declarations and general Wyoming recording law.
Solar Rights Act — Declaration of Solar Rights
Declares beneficial use of solar energy a property right. Priority in time gives the better right. Solar rights are freely transferable. Does not explicitly prohibit HOA restrictions on solar panels — the statute establishes solar as a property right and authorizes local government regulation, but does not override CC&R restrictions.

Frequently Asked Questions — Wyoming HOA Law
How much advance notice must a Wyoming HOA give for meetings?
Under W.S. §17-19-705, a Wyoming association must give unit owners at least 10 days advance notice of meetings. The notice must specify the date, time, place, and agenda items to be considered. Actions taken at a meeting that violates the notice requirement may be voidable on owner challenge.
