Homeowner Protection
Every homeowner deserves a board they can hold accountable.
Courtney Heard was in the Georgia Senate judiciary hearing room for SB 406 before she ever filed to run. In the House, she will finish the work.
The Challenge
What District 68 families are actually facing
Hundreds of District 68 families live under HOA governance with no real transparency, no fair elections, and no recourse when rules are broken. They are paying fees they cannot audit, facing fines they cannot appeal, and navigating disputes they cannot afford to fight in court. Georgia's HOA foreclosure laws allow an association to foreclose on a homeowner over a minor assessment dispute. SB 406, the Georgia Property Owner Bill of Rights Act, passed the Senate unanimously and was a significant first step. But governing documents in many communities were not preempted, enforcement mechanisms remain weak, and the House work is not finished.

What Courtney Says
The argument in her own words.
"I was in the room when SB 406 moved through the Senate judiciary committee. No one else in this race can say that."
"SB 406 was the beginning, not the finish line. The House is where the work continues."
"An HOA should not be able to foreclose on a family over a few hundred dollars in disputed fees. Georgia law currently allows it. I will change it."
"Homeowners have a right to see where their money goes, attend open meetings, and vote in fair elections. That should not require a lawyer."
"Governing documents that contradict state law should not have the power to override it. We need explicit preemption. I will fight for it."
