HOAs need to be eliminated not controlled.
Why? People aren’t forced to buy into HOA neighborhood.
It’s a contract just like any other contract. You enter into if voluntarily
HOAs are socialist in nature. Anything where your neighbors tell you what you can and can’t do to your house, beyond existing local/state codes, micromanage your property, is just wrong.
There are already codes for crap like not cutting a lawn or leaving decaying sh1t on your front lawn, and for people using a private dwelling as a business and dealing with occupancy type issues. Forcing people to buy a certain door or paint trim a certain color, or not being able to plant a bush where they want or fly a flag, none of anyone else’s business.
