maybe you missed the part that stated 90 percent of new homes have mandatory HOAs. Many cities here in texas its 100 percent. The cities pass laws that prevent building any developement without a mandatory HOA.

HOAs are a Constitutional abomination. They are illegal in so many ways I fail to see how they continue to exist. Im not aware of any cases going to SCOTUS but they need to.

Pure nonsense! HOA's are a private contract between homeowners, entered into on a voluntary basis for mutual perceived benefit. If you wish to live in a manner that is detrimental to your neighbor's comfort and property values, do it elsewhere and enjoy all of your Constitutional rights. Swine prefer living among other swine.
