Are you the same guy with the HOA’s?
My only point on HOAs is that there are good ones and bad ones - that they serve a purpose but are often abused and often run by little folks with a power and control complex. I also said that they are neither good nor bad necessarily, that it’s case by case. And most importantly, there are plenty of houses to buy IN and NOT IN HOA neighborhoods. It’s called the freedom to live in one because you think it will protect your property values, or to not live in one because you don’t want neighbors being busy bodies.
Both points are valid. It’s called freedom, like I said.
