Newbie?
what defines a newbie?

back to topic
the girl had lived there for nearly 5 years which would have also been at the top of the housing market

Again I think an extension can be given but rules are rules and they have violated the rules for 5 years

It doesn’t say what age she went to live with the grandparents, but only that she was a “baby”. Assuming that means less than 1yo, they’ve had 5 years to reconcile themselves with the rules they had to acknowledge when they moved in.

Including 3+ years of real estate boom time.

I favor some time for them to get things squared away, but they are clearly negligent in their compliance with the rules.

RWGinger is right, no matter his or her newbie status. You are wrong.

The problem here is that many retirement communities enjoy reduced property taxes based on not being a burden on the school system.

There is no easy answer to this one.

I agree with RW ginger, you sign a contract you adhere to it. No lying, cheating or stealing.

OTOH, there may be a stipulation in the HO that allows for a temprary relief from a rule in 60% of the home owners agree.

"yeah, newbie, they knew the rules."

RWGInger, please ignore THEFACTOR's nastiness. Some people on this forum think that the length of their membership on FR makes them smart. They usually use the "newbie attack" (which no longer even applies to you) when they have nothing to say. So please read thefactor's post just in this way: he screams at the top of his lungs that he has nothing to say.
