How can I bue sued for property I surrendered with my chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Are you being sued for amounts owed prior to your bankruptcy case being filed, or amounts that accrued after?  Are you still living in the property?  If not, when you left did you inform the HOA and provide them your keys? The answer to your question depends on the above, as well as the laws regarding homeowners' associations in your state.  You are clearly not liable for any dues that accrued prior to filing your bankruptcy case, but you may be liable (depending on your answers to the above) for those that accrued after, as long as you are still on title to the property and enjoying use of the common areas, etc.  If your bankruptcy attorney is not giving you a sufficient answer, try hiring a different one.
