The state’s homeowners’ associations (HOAs) are notorious for petty bureaucracy – including threats of eviction for the wrong kind of dog or decorative garage door hinges
If you had to name the state where a Vietnam war veteran almost lost his apartment for owning the wrong kind of dog; in which a ring of thieves made off with millions of dollars of residents’ money they were obligated to look after; and where a family was threatened with legal action over decorative garage door hinges, intuition would lead you to Florida.
Such absurdities from homeowners’ associations (HOAs) abound where the nation’s highest concentration of condominium developments, gated communities and upmarket resorts blend seamlessly with an abundance of petty bureaucracy and outright crookedness.
As a SC resident stuck with an HOA, I can confirm this is 1000% true
My point is that HOAs are going to get a lot worse because more for profit HOA companies are coming in. And HOA companies don’t just give people annoying fines, they charge people expensive legal fees and often try to foreclose on properties for pennies on the dollar.
Yes, I concurred with you
Ahh, sorry. Got confused with the “too good to be true” / “1000% true” juxtaposition. Still waking up and on my first cup of coffee over here.
