I’m no fan of most HOAs, but it seems ludicrous to use the authority of a state government to override legally binding real estate contracts.
Thank GOD DeSantis stepped in as many of these HOA’s and COA’s use vague enough language to gouge the hell out of residents. These associations are often run by full blown tyrants.
“I’m no fan of most HOAs, but it seems ludicrous to use the authority of a state government to override legally binding real estate contracts.”
The HOA documents are not signed by the buyer.
HOA documents can be changed without the owner’s consent.
Well in the case of denying the installation of storm shutters for hurricane protection, it’s because they were doing stupid shit against community safety and public policy, which often makes a contract unenforceable anyway.
This is just a way to keep HOA cases from clogging up the courts.
UNLESS AND UNTIL you have suffered financially, mentally, physically and Spiritually at the hands of HOA dictators, you should just shu’up! say...YOU aren’t one of “Them”....right?
It seems ludicrous to have to have a law to stop arbitrary abuse, but it’s valid.
“I’m no fan of most HOAs, but it seems ludicrous to use the authority of a state government to override legally binding real estate contracts.”
You know, I don’t think this is the first time I’ve seen you completely ruin a thread with common sense. What are you, some kind of conservative troll or something?
The HOA’s fees and fines can be like time share fees. Never ending and you have no control over them.
Our HOA is not mandatory so I don’t join.

much of what was outlawed were practices not codified in any document, but behavior designed so that a small group of HO-nazis could rule a neighborhood as their personal fifedom with little recourse from homeowners ... secret meetings, secret documents passed in secret meetings, secret rules, secretly changed rules, secret lists of homeowners, etc. ... most of what was passed as state law was simply the same sunshine and financial rules that apply in most states to most local governmental districts ...
