You appear to have some personal experience with unscrupulous land developers/builders and with new Homeowners’ Associations.
Where do you want me to start?
1.) Sued for foreclosure over an under $1 accounting error by the HOA? (sued over a - $0.68 negative balance ,, later found to be a slight positive balance)
2.) “power wash your driveway” order ,, repeated twice after the wash was done...
3.) Yes a community clubhouse was cancelled by US Homes when they held a slight voting majority before turning the HOA over to the owners (they got one vote per lot not built house)
4.) ARC demand to alter my house claiming I made a unauthorized change... change was made by first owner 18 years ago... before THIS HOA (as opposed to prior hoa run by developer) existed.
I could go on ... I now have to make quarterly HOA payments in person (a 20 mile drive to a management company) to avoid being targeted with the old “your check was late” scam with late charges..
