I Appreciate the Little Things In Life

i am in library on computer. there is a meeting of a homeowners association behind me. they are loud and obnoxious and just complaining and gossiping and ratting people out and blah blah blah. big surprise its a bunch of old farts that are retired or into real estate and its just bitching about raccoons and where people park their cars and just crap. I think HOAs are bullshit legal entities created to steal peoples money and homes and should be illegal. if you bought house it is yours and these crooks buy up best properties where people will want to live and work and take over. what is your opinion?

Before purchasing real estate, I would suggest checking whether there's a HOA for that property. HOA's may have restrictions about almost everything and anything pertaining to that property. For example they can restrict the color of your house, or whether you can build a fence, or change the exterior appearance, etc., etc.

Oh .... some HOA's are GREAT! Like mine, usually. Our HOA handles the grass-cutting for the entire HOA as well as snow removal.
