I honestly don’t know what you’re talking about. Any homeowner, at any time, can look at the books and challenge any expenditure.(they don’t,) They can show up at board meetings (they don’t.) They can make their grievances public in the newsetter (they don’t.) People would rather complain than do any work.
(I do), (I do), and (I do). THEY are the ones who DON’T. They sit there like potted plants and stare at you. The property manager is an abject liar. I’ve sued them twice and won both times, total=$72,000.
I will keep suing until they either get the message or the other members get tired of the association being sued and elect new management.
