But how does that car dealership next door to you feel about it?
One of the drawbacks for NOT having an HOA. You next door neighbor can pretty much open any kind of company they want, right next door. At least that is the way it was in my experience in Texas.
I’ve lived with and without HOA. Never had a problem, because the folks on the HOA board have always used common sense. That is what is ultimately the problem in 100% of these cases.
Feels just fine about it. This is Texas. :)
