      A couple of years ago a young couple moved into my neighborhood and tried to start an HOA. It didn't go well and they couldn't understand why no one wanted it. None of the neighbors wanted to be told what they could and couldn't do with their homes and yards. The couple didn't stay here very long.

Is there some sort of secret kickback or something that these agents are getting if they ignore the client's wishes and try to push people into buying HOA homes? It's just weird AF to die on that hill IMO. I'd rather have a sale.

    This made my blood boil. Power and control where power and control isn’t warranted or beneficial. Get a life, folks. This HOA is blind and should be very, very ashamed. I grew up in an OPTIONAL HOA that cost practically nothing - maybe $20/year max. They had no control over anything anyone did with their homes and acted as a vehicle to bring the community to together and represent our community to larger government organizations. The cost barely covered the printing of a campy newsletter informing residents of everything going on in the area like events, crime, and promoting local businesses. Those HOA volunteers would go to bat for our community against any big government program that affected the integrity of the community in a second. That’s what an HOA should be. All the volunteers had full time jobs and had no interest in policing their neighbors over petty BS. If I was caught passing out water, the HOA president would go to Costco and bring me more and say “keep up the good work”. LIKE ANY DECENT HUMAN BEING.

    I used to live in that neighborhood with that HOA. Why did this become an issue recently? Because the HOA wants money and these fines are a great way to get an extra $100 every once in awhile to help the HOA pay their expenses. Advice: Get all the neighbors to go to the next few HOA meetings and the HOA will back off.

      On the other hand, the home owners can just vote to change the HOA rules to make this not a violation.
      But on the other, other hand, it is illegal in the state of Arizona to deny someone water. HOA’s can do whatever they want within the limits of the actual law. This may be a violation of Arizona law. It would be worthwhile to find out, and if so, then let the HOA know that you could do to the HOA as the HOA has done to you.

      I’m in Ottawa, Ontario, and a friend, a woman of 80+, recently got a letter from the city saying ‘someone’ (either a mistake, or a Karen) complained that her backyard was full of garbage, and the grass was uncut. This friend, who is meticulous about her property, was stressed out and couldn’t believe anyone would do such a thing. Even though her place is nicer than 95% of the homes around here, the city gave her a hard time, and I am unsure if they actually sent out a bylaw officer to check it out first. Guessing not. It’s not just HOA’s, it’s everywhere where there are people who believe they have the god-given right to interfere in other peoples lives, causing stress and misery wherever they are. They aren’t happy until everyone around them is unhappy. What’s become of this world we live in? So sad.

I would not buy an HOA house because I don't care to be overly controlled nor to overly control others. Have all the junk cars you want as long as they are not on my property and the only reason I care about the tall dry grass is fire danger so I might have to call the fire department to come talk with you if you don't do something about it after my polite request but I will not form a residents gang to push you around.

    This guy is an asset to his community! HOA should be embarrassed. I hope the HOA does not put a lien on his home.

    We lived in an HOA ONCE. You pay extra to have them so they can then go overboard as overseers as a Joseph Stalin type of a person would. Shamefully ridiculous.

    I thought it was against the law to deny someone water? Shouldnt cops follow the law and stop the hoa? Hoas are denying access to water. Hoas are not above the law.

    The fact that the HOA can fine them for giving out water in one of the hottest parts of the country is criminal. The fact that they DOUBLE the fine in the three hottest months should be illegal!

      He signed the HOA covenant. That means he voluntarily agreed to abide by their rules. Not that complicated.
