Is the HOA paying the mortgage?
Thought not.
The problem begins when those with anxiety and personality disorders are not confronted to seek counseling early in life.
The problem is then reinforced and compounded when members of the community are tricked into transferring a portion of their rights to those people.
It isn’t the HOA rules that are the biggest problem as you informed and you accept them going in. The far greater problem is subjecting yourself to the petty, wannabe mini-tyrants and incessant petty torments of neighborhood busybodies who comprise so very many HOA boards that can make your personal life and your personal decisions a living hell ... and give rise to a persistent desire to escape from your beautiful home.
Silliness. These rules are common in HOAs. I live in an HOA that is not strict at all. Which is fine, but there are some neighbors who need rules because they don’t care enough to maintain their landscaping or siding.
They deserve the house they purchase in the neighborhood they purchase it.
They don’t deserve anything bad to happen to them for the choice they made.
A house should be a place to live, not an investment. Screw HOAs.
Actually, it can and should be both. Why allow other poorly kept houses in a neighborhood dictate the value of your homes depreciation? I am not advocating complete HOA control, I am saying there is nothing wrong with a few reasonable regulations.
I would love to get about +10 acres. We keep getting outbid.
In my former neighborhood, only Democrat signs were allowed. If you put a Republican one, you got notified. If you pointed out all the Democrat signs, you got ignored.
And there are people who pay others to physically hurt and humiliate them. It takes all kinds.
Yep, happening in mine. My Let’s Go Brandon flag gets immediate letter but terrorist BLM, perverted Pride flags, and anti-American socialist world flags get a pass.
