HOA fees are for the management and care of what is classified as "common" property. They are not paid for the management of a rental property owner's property. So placing it under management fees would be incorrect. This is especially true if you are an RE pro and claim to spend more than 750 hours a year/15 hours a week managing your rental property(s). Claim such, and also claiming "management fees" would problem be a sure fire way to raise flags and invite an audit.
HOA fees should be reported on the very last screen in the expenses section that asks for any other expenses not already reported. Just list it as HOA Fees, enter the amount and press on.
