New Florida law prohibiting HOAs from passing parking restrictions could affect millions

- Опубліковано 1 гру 2024
- According to the non-profit Foundation for Community Association Research, more than nine million people-about 44 percent of Floridians-live in communities governed by homeowner’s associations, which can regulate what kinds of vehicles can park in their communities and where.
This guy is why I hate HOAs.
I agree. And that weasel of an attourney that looks like a sketch from SNL.
Yep, anything they don't personally like is "bad for property values"
He's the reason everyone hates HOA he's on a power trip cuz he got nothing to do all day
@@Hippitidippity He's one of the main reasons. HOAs are built to fine and harass homeowners.
@@Adiscretefirm What do you mean they?
The board? OR
the 70% of HOME OWNERS that MUST agree on something for something to be enforced?
HOA means >>>HOME>>OWNER
The pompous ass saying sell your vehicle or park somewhere else is the reason a new law had to be passed .
I most certainly AGREE!!! 🤨
If your next door neighbor had a septic tank pump out truck parked in his driveway,
you would all of a sudden become a pompous ass like that guy as well,
and not want a commercial truck parked at home.
@@theboringchannel2027 In that case if it was a smell issue there is a city ordinances that would handle that. The pompous ass isn't concerned about "smell", he is concerned about the "look".
@@theboringchannel2027I am proud to live in a neighborhood where about 50% own their own business. Their work trucks are fine in their driveways! Septic tank or not.
@@marylizhebert1620 well that is your choice and the neighborhoods as well. This neighborhood and person would prefer there not be work trucks, their choice,
just like you choosing based on where you purchased your house.
In my state, you cannot park work trucks at home or on residential streets unless actively working.
Mike Miller is an excellent example of why I would never buy in an HOA. What a jerk.
I lived in HOA communities as a renter. The HOA communities that I lived in kept the place nice and clean. All these people that are crying about they are not allowed to park their work trucks or vans on their driveway knew the HOA rules before they moved in or before they bought the homes in HOA community.
@@Area51-is6vg You would love living in prison. 3 hots and a cot for you.
you mean big jerk
@@Area51-is6vgsee there are other arseholes not just Mr. Miller.
@@Area51-is6vg Dude it's not about work trucks if you watch the video. It about trucks in general even if they are nice and well kept. Also tbf most people probably don't think that would be a rule when they buy
HOA’s should be abolished.
Mr.Miller, you are what’s wrong with America.
Great point.
John T Miller?
If you don't like the rules, don't move there,
very simple, the world owes you and your wants nothing.
Why you feel the need to force your wants on others?
@@theboringchannel2027 There are HOAs that can foreclose on your house without informing you because you have a bunch of "fines" that they never had to tell you about. They will also try to force out anyone who moved there before the HOA, and didn't want their property to be part of it. HOAs will also be so petty as to pick a fight with a WWII verteran/MoH recipient for the heinous crime of raising the American flag on their property. Fuck HOAs, they need to be disbanded so people don't have to go on a Benny Hill style chase to find a home.
Also, as is with the neighborhood in this vid, saying you can't park a pick-up in front is fucking stupid when you realize that car companies pretty much build nothing but trucks/SUVs now because of how US emissions/economy regulations are written. Basically the bigger the vehicle, the looser the standards. So I guess fuck anyone who wanted to buy a new car.
@@theboringchannel2027 Perhaps you should watch the video again but this time LISTEN to what's being said regarding the rules.
They need to pass laws to limit what the HOA can and cannot do. HOA is out of control.
Or simply ban HOAs altogether. So much for free country... 🙄
Why? What about people that want those restrictions and that is why they moved there? The HOA rules are known before you buy the house. If you don’t like the rules, simply don’t move there. I don’t like HOAs either, so I don’t live in a community with one.
@@atenrok Ban contracts?
Notice any position with some sort of power attracts lying thieving sociopathic and narcissistic people?
@@jeanchapman1301the rules change over time depending on what idiot is in control. Many live in HOA communities for long periods of time and the rules shift which tend to land on less favorable rules to those who bought before rules were amended.
One thing HOA's can't stand is losing control, being control freaks.
That's the problem. HOA board members are usually the power hungry or bored buttinskys, and the real majority doesn't pay attention because they are too busy working or enjoying their retired life.
The ONE guy who is in favor of HOA says it ALL. "I don't like your pickup." What a loser.
I bet his wife's boyfriend drives a work pickup truck.
@@brassmule Ah yes, Sancho.
he never comes out side
@MrGriff305 where do you draw the line ? What if I don’t want a blue or pink haired person living next door.
The problem is these HOAs are becoming like an invasive species and you can’t get away from them.
🙏
I would never want to live in a place that has an HOA. The guy representing the HOA is a perfect example of why you don't want an HOA controlling your life.
Don't forget to mention your house, your money, your peace, your front yard, back yard, plants, mail box and your Life decisions like selling your own house.
Why pay monthly for Karens and Kens to tell you what to do with your own property? It’s not even tax deductible.
Restricting a large vehicle like an 18-wheeler is one thing but a pickup truck is another. Freedom isn’t free
Moch there’s lies the problem.. it comes back to what someone likes or dislikes. You’re fine with pickup, but not a big rig.. some one else might not like seeing a pickup..
But muh property values!
mr. miller is a karen and needs to let the people park their work trucks, people need to make a living.
He is a fascist and a tyrant that has a driving need to control others. Dangerous people.
Why does his "property values" interpretation get to reign supreme just because he got elected to the HOA board? Get rid of all HOAs except the most minimalistic ones where you pay to support a community center and that's it. Get rid of the "property values" argument by banning it by law. People shouldn't be able to tell their neighbors how to live their lives.
@@kenw.4539not trying to tell people how to live their lives, just upkeep their property.
He wants to create exaggerations to justify harassment.
@@lindah.1104that's telling them how to live their lives...
A lot of communities have started getting rid of their HOA boards. I support this. I am fed up with HOAs.
No, they are lying. It is extremely difficult to dissolve an HOA and a lengthy and costly legal process. State are making it mandatory for new developments to have HOA because they don't want any responsibility or obligations even if you pay taxes. If they do have some responsibility for non gated communities, they have zero obligations for gated communities that are legally private property.
@@j.a.3138 You on a HOA board son?
@@pkcensors nobody is dissolving HOA communities. Here in Florida they are mandatory since 1980. In fact 97% of all homes built since 1980 in Florida are mandatorily under HOA. For there to be a dissolution of HOA, it would have to be agreed upon by people that live there (not going to happen) AND city/county/state would have to allow it (also not going to happen).
May I ask why are you fed up with your HOA?
@@pkcensors So I need to be on one?
I would never buy in an HOA
Nearly half the stock of homes are in associations so someone has already taken away half of your choices.
@@SamuelClemens-o6qThat should be illegal because they don't own the homes do they?
Sometimes you don't gave a choice.
In the near future, if you don’t like to buy a property under HOA management probably you and your family will have to become homelessness, specific by AZ’s cities.😊
@@austinhernandez2716: '... they don't own the homes ...' but can sell it out from under the homeowner for a trifling debt.

Captain Blueshirt is a prime example of the reason the law was passed. He helped create his own backlash, now he wants to whine.
Hi dear how are you doing
It it people like him that give HOA’s a bad name. A pickup truck parked in your neighbor’s driveway won’t reduce your property values. Get over yourself.
Simply having an HOA reduces your property value to zero, in my view!!!🤣🤣🤣
The same sort of people who make such a rule also seek a neighborhood that wouldn’t violate the rule. White collar snobs.
I never understood why make the biggest purchase of your life just to have someone tell you what to do with it….

@@diegojines-us9pc The Karen community need to stick to their own. Make each others lives miserable and leave the rest of us alone.
@@mr.anderson4755 well you signed the contract. so you gave up that choice, thats why they dont buy in a trailor park.
HOAs exist so city governments can push their responsibilities off to the HOA and STILL collect property taxes. It's a total scam and mana heaven for karens with too much free time to harass you. I hope we sue HOAs out of existence and force corrupt cities to do their duty.
@@diegojines-us9pcWhy would you assume that the neighbor living in that type of neighborhood would have a junker and would park it on their front lawn?
This guy is a male Karen. His thinking is why HOA's are hated by rational people.
An awful lot of people choose to buy into them, but I’m not seeing many of them in theses comments.
Amen. Key word is “rational.” My friend has a pickup truck as his personal vehicle but can’t park here when he stays overnight because of HOA rules. This guy is leaping to monster trucks. Smfh - total lack of rationality.
Great job! Homeowners that work hard deserve to park work vehicle in their home. How dare he says park somewhere else. So selfish.

Or people could just not buy in a neighborhood that has an HOA unless they want to be in a neighborhood with an HOA. That's one of those "freedom of choice" things that we have in America...for now.
How about don't buy in an HOA, or maybe read the rules before buying.

Agreed!
Yes, let’s take away the rights of others to choose to regulate themselves.
@@aliannarodriguez1581 regulating your neighborhood =/= regulating yourself.
@@aliannarodriguez1581 That's what an HOA does though. You move into one and they tell you what you can and can't do with your own property. You're giving up your rights as a homeowner.
Anyone with enough time on their hands to worry about a truck parked in someone else's driveway needs to find a new hobby. That's pathetic.

All HOAs need to go away PERIOD!! 🤬
Am I the only one that hates the look of these communities? It's so sterile. I want my neighborhood to look like one. Families, kids playing outside, house that don't all look exactly the same. You know, life. "Property values" isn't the only value of a home. And personally I want my home to be mine, not property of the HOA in the end. I never wanted to experience life under dictatorship, so I'm not sure why people enjoy it so much.
You are NOT. I don’t live with the asinine parking restrictions, but just the roof issue bugs me. And we had some bent out of shape because a neighborhood next to ours was going to be very different.
I am right there with you. Everything is the same. It is sterile.
Just like 99% of people against HOA's, You are ignorant and misinformed in the matter.
Who told you that your property that you have a mortgage on and you pay your hard money on, belongs to the HOA? that's a terrible lie to believe.
Are you familiar with your HOA Articles and Bylaws? if not, I highly recommend you to look at it and educate yourself. The more you spread negative and misinformation on a subject you don't understand, you are not helping but making it worse.
The HOA is not just three people in a board, is a COMMUNITY as a whole, the board is just enforcing what YOU signed when YOU purchased the property and YOU decided to agree. If YOU didn't read, the YOU messed up, the HOA (Residents) is established there to protect the common interest of the community as a whole that's why when voting on a matter, there has to be a majority of the community resent.
Here is some examples of what we have been dealing with in our community:
Oil changes in the driveway, leaving a mess like oil pans and oil stains, etc.
Junk cars parked, either abandoned or for parts
Cars on lifts with no tires
Having the ability to park FOUR cars in the property, using the garage for storage while parking four cars outside (2 in the driveway and 2 on the street)
Parking Jet-Skis on the front side yard
Parking boats on the driveway having to park the cars on the street, obstructing traffic flow
Garbage all over the place
Abandoned Grass
Abandoned external house repairs
Trees affecting the neighbor that doesn't want trees (Roots, leafs, etc.)
Eyesore Exterior paint
Front yard decorations and accessories that are abandoned, such as swing sets, Gazebos, Water fountains, Vintage Rusty bicycles, etc.
Unfenced homes with backyard abandoned accessories
Unfenced home with pools, and/or abandoned pools
Fences that affect the neighbor, such as wood which deteriorate rapidly overtime and devalue the home.
Unfenced homes with dogs
Using the garage as a barbershop, auto shop or auto detailing shop
Homes being used as Airbnb's or as rentals
Rental tenants making modifications not-approved by the owner and leaving, having the owner stuck with the issues
Lighting that affect other homes such as soffit string lighting
Lighting and decorations that are abandoned in place
Mobile Auto Detailing companies taking over the mail box and pool parking lot to detail cars USING the electricity from the pool area without permission
Residents thinking of the HOA as a country club that you pay a fee and you get to do whatever you want at the cost of the HOA
Constantly using the pool and cabana for NON-RESIDENT celebrations, birthdays, Indepence Day, etc. Leaving a mess behind.
Giving access to things, to non-residents that only residents can use.
So, educate yourself and make a decision, stay or move out but at least educate yourself.
Then don't move into an HOA
OMG!!! Just the other day our kids where playing outside and some neighbors complained about bikes on the lawn. First experience with HOA. Beginning to miss my regular apartment.
Completely agree with this law ! Punishing hard working people because they have a company car is ridiculous to say the least.
Then don't move in there. HOA properties are not all bad. I agree with the HOA
@@Melissa-Isaiah61BeautyforAshesso hard working people can’t move into a nice neighborhood because they work a labor job and need a truck? That ain’t freedom. Stopping someone from parking a truck with a logo on it is not right, you use your vehicle why can’t they? What if your company made you drive a company car and now you can’t park it in your neighborhood how would you feel? The entitlement is real

I live somewhere without an HOA and if there is one thing I could change, it's all the people who park their monster trucks and hotdog cars in their driveway.
I live in Arizona and have an HOA. Last summer I happened to be looking out my window when a black SUV pulled up, window rolled down and a hand with a phone started taking pics of my house. Concerned I ran outside and the SUV quickly rolled up window and sped away.
Days later HOA mailed a pic of two small weeds growing in my yard of rocks with a complaint/threat that I had 24 hours to remove them or a fine would be issued.
I had to search for the barely visible weeds.
HOAs are beyond ridiculous and not needed.
Socialism at it's best!

I worked as a security guard in a hoa complex and I had people following me around trying to get me to write up their neighbors for stupid things like an extra potted plant on their balcony. Karens every where there.
Get with your neighbors and petition to disband your HOA today
Abolish HOAs.
And what would happen if your neighbor is doing things that are dramatically lowering the value of your home, the neighborhood and the community overall, eventually at the point of no return? Here are some examples of what my 7 year old community has been dealing with for some time:
Oil changes in the driveway, leaving a mess like oil pans and oil stains, etc.

The HOAs artciles and bylaws has many other elements that protect the value and the safety of the community AS a WHOLE.
Remember, the HOA is compose of the whole community and not just the "Board" the board is just ENFORCING what EACH resident SIGNED when they purchased the home.
So what are we left with? why the stigma towards HOAs? well, one word - IGNORANCE.
Most people don't read, most people don't understand and simply don't care unless it affects them personally
Having HOAs is all about caring for each-others interests and keeping a nice looking community.
So, educate yourself and make a decision, stay or move out but at least educate yourself.
@@oterosocram25 Two words... "code enforcement". I absolutely guarantee a lot of those problems are violations. If your city's code enforcement refuses to do anything, you need to become an activist and go camp out at your mayor's office.

Are you really that ignorant? that you are "absolutely guaranteeing" something that clearly you still don't understand? Just really go over your comment once again, hopefully you see the error in it.
NOT one of those issues are code enforcement related, NOT one.
When a resident is signing the mortgage he is given the HOA package explaining everything. that package is for the community and the community alone and is resident enforcement.
I'm not part of the board, but I have suggested many things to the board so we can relax a little.
But again, educate yourself and read.

That's being pretty charitable. What do you call a male Karen?

The problem with HOA's is that the people who want to be on the board are the exact people who should not be on the board.

@@daveassanowicz186 Yep, none of the pickups in the video had a lick of any "work wear" on them. Instead they look freshly waxed. It's just men with insecurities driving those.
If HOAs wouldn't be such dictators, then this rule wouldn't need to be. HOAs is about a FEW governing everyone else.
There might be a self-selection problem with some HOA boards. The people eager to do it might not be the best choices. Or, it might be a legal concern that’s pushing them to be so overzealous. There’s some legal principle that if rules are not uniformly enforced, associations can be sued and prevented from enforcing them at all. Personally, it sounds like the landscaping rules need to be completely revamped and probably dramatically reduced.
Outlaw HOA'S PERIOD!
Why does this guy think he has the right to tell me what kind of vehicle I can drive?
That's crazy. Having a neighbor park their office/business vehicle in their lot will not lower their property value.
It absolutely will. What markets are you shopping?
@@ystebadvonschlegel3295 Bullcrap.
Actually even in neighborhoods without HOAs I hear people complain about commercial vehicles, including work trucks with company logos, parked in driveways overnight. The issue is that they feel small businesses are taking advantage of neighborhoods by parking commercial equipment there for free, and it makes the neighborhood look more commercial and less like a quiet residential area. Unfortunately, going forward, it appears that the average person won’t be able to count on their neighborhoods to be a quiet sanctuary from work like they were in the past. Things are changing and there are a lot of forces acting on suburbs now, including a house-less generation that wants to convert them into densely packed triplexes and small apartment buildings.

I currently live in an HOA community…and I can’t wait to get out, never again!!
I hate HOA Nazi's. I lived among them in an HOA in California. They made everyone's life miserable with their petty little rules. They would goose step through the neighborhood in little packs looking for any violation, however minor. When I moved to Florida 30 years ago I told my real estate agent "no HOA" no exceptions. I have owned 2 homes since I moved here, both in nice neighborhoods. I have never regretted that decision.
The silliness HOAs worry about. Smh

This is actually a simple one. No one likes being told what to do with "their" home. Before anyone signs their purchase and sale agreement they are made aware of the neighborhood covenants by their realtor. HOA rules are always spelled out in advance and agreed to by the purchaser during the sale procedure. If one can't abide by the rules in a community maybe one shouldn't buy there.
Have you ever tried to go through one of those “rule books”? They’re HUGE. Nobody has time to go through and retain every word. A lot of folks just take their pickup trucks for granted and think one couldn’t possibly be told they’re not allowed to keep it on the property. My friend’s pickup is gorgeous and worth at least twice what my vehicle is worth but he can’t park it here overnight because of HOA rules. It’s so silly.
In Lakewood Ranch the HOA fines me for a burnt out lamp post bulb. $500. I hadn't even taken possession or moved to Florida yet. Police officers can park their squad cars in the drive overnight, but the small business owner gets hassled. Rediculous
I would not want to live in a community where restrictions on vehicles are. in place.
Guess Europe is out
Then don’t buy there. Those of us who DO want a neighborhood without cars and trucks in driveways will love somewhere else. It’s called freedom
I would not want to live in a community with this jerkwad.
@@ystebadvonschlegel3295restricting what others can do is freedom?
@ystebadvonschlegel3295 that's the complete opposite of freedom by not allowing someone who spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a house, and not allow them to park their vehicle in the driveway just because it's not a traditional car, but instead their work truck, or a personal truck.
I lived in south Fl for 34 years dealing with an HOA Finally sold out 5 years ago and moved to a rural 5 acres in north Fl . No HOA telling me what we can and cannot do on our own property
If you’ve got 5 acres then most things you do won’t affect your neighbors much. But be aware, rural neighbors have their own way of enforcing norms and previous generations often fled to the city in order to get MORE personal freedom. For example, if your neighbors have wells then you can mess them up pretty bad by doing things that might not seem like a big deal to you.
That HOA policy transgressed your Property Rights
as soon as HOA speaks about "property values" RUN!
This guy in the blue t-shirt is the greatest and most arrogant guy ever. There is no wa that he should decide wich kind of car someone else drives. As of opening the gate for all kind of vehicles and here showing Monster Trucks is crazy and stupid. Those trucks are not used in normal traffic anyway. The only rules that should be there are that the vehicle should be street legal, and that while being parked they should not block the walkway as could be seen in this video in different places. If the vehicle is to big for your driveway, then find another spot to park it legaly.
I wouldn't live in an hoa community. The first time someone shows up telling me i can't park in my own driveway, it would be on. 😊

The pickup truck rule was the straw that broke the camels back. It showed just how out of touch the HOA mindset really is. Stupidity can get very expensive, lawyers gotta' eat.
Thought the same thing since most car manufacturers have shifted production to trucks/SUVs to get around US emissions/fuel economy laws. Basically the bigger the vehicle, the looser the standards.

No, the community does not lose the ability to manage themselves. The HOA loses the ability to manage residents.

@@thomastherriault8632 well a flat tire is classified as inop, so its a junker on the road. which is illegal under any law and will be towed, so ya, tire checks,
I thought this was America, isn’t this America?
oh hunny if you are just now realizing you are a slave to them, welcome to the party its about time. no where in this country can you exist freely or for free. its pathetic. work 45 yrs to own land? want to be left alone? cant, still gotta pay the man to own that land. and in most places they even get away with telling you what you can and cant do with it...
Not sure if that saying means much in 2024. Or maybe it means about as much as it did in the 50s or something 🤷♂️
Towns have been enforcing rules on what you have visible on your property from before this was a country.
The misguided youth of America sees the socialistic governments in scandinavia and think we need to become a socialist country like they. I fear for our future.
As one who rents air B&Bs in Florida, it was discussing that the HOAs had deals with toe companies to go through the streets at night and look for even cars, in driveways, that maybe had part of the vehicle over the sidewalk. Then they toe it. You wake up and your vehicle is gone. It's descusting and I'm glad that something is being done. This was needed for a long time.
So when the HOA loses this case and pays all court costs..... HOA fees goes up.
HOA = 💩
People should be able to park what ever they want as long as is in their property cause they pay a lot for their property on top pay taxes and HOA . The HOA should regulate the street not the property that belongs to the owner
They've tried that but the county owns the street not the hoa lol hoas are pointless and need to go
I agree with this HOA
yes like the old days. 3 color chevy on blocks.
Or only have HOAs manage community centers and throw parties for the neighborhood and THAT'S IT!
This is a kind of class envy. Pickup trucks equate to rednecks. We're better than that. We are rich, and we want to look like it! If you work for a living you are not welcome here.
I don't care what is parked on my neighbors driveway. It's their property, they can park whatever they want, even RV. I also live in HOA community but our HOA is very very easy with any of your rights including exterior paint, roof color, window styling, cars in driveway or on street and fencing or no fencing, they don't care. Also this is fairly new community with amenities like Trash pickup, Swimming Pool, Play area and snow removal!
One thing: I wouldn't consider trash pickup and snow removal amenities. I'd call them necessities.
I live in an HOA and don't mind most of the rules but I never understood or agreed with the work truck thing. I have never been ashamed to live next to someone who works for a living.
Imagine buying a house for $300 Plus, but someone have to decide for you what color to paint your house, what kind of car you drive, what type of fence to install, to me HOA not make any sense. 🏡🚫❌👎🏾
Who wants to live like this?
Somebody give that guy a coloring book
And an enema.
@@stache1954 no he would love an enema
@@stache1954 his wife does that with her strap-on
Most HOAs in the United States operate illegally. In my state you have to take a class, pass a test and get a certificate to be on an HOA board. The board must be 100% certified or it cannot levy fines. I got certified, got on my board and found out that I was the only one certified. The board had been levying fines for years illegally. When they tried to fine me, I took them to small claims court and proved none of the other board members were certified. Easy win.
What state is that?
I don't have a problem with personal vehicles, but I wouldn't want work vehicles/ commercial vehicles parked everywhere through my community
why?You have something against the people who make things work.
Dune buggies were parked in our old HOA neighborhood. There was also a RV parked in front of a house. Our new home is in a 55+ golf community which is run by an HOA.
This is America last I checked and if I want to have my registered junker of a car sitting on my driveway and paint my house hot pink, Damn it, it's my right
And who would want to live next to that? Which is why people go live in an HOA and end up in this predicament.
Not in a hoa you’re not. 🤷♂️
I don't live in an HOA community in CA. I put a tarp and a few bricks on the roof of my old car temporarily to keep water from leaking in. My sunroof won't close properly. Some neighborhood karen called the cops to complain I was violating some city ordinance and the cops actually left a note on my car saying I was violating some ordinance. I moved my car onto my driveway. I then put more bricks on the roof and left the bricks there permanently. I would have drawn a "middle finger to the karens" picture and taped it to the back of my car but that's going too far and there are kids in the neighborhood.
Doubt subside with a junker would buy an upscale house.
I have never have and never will live in any neighborhood with an HOA.
It definitely has its Pros and Cons.
People love them, Lakewood ranch is very popular.
Working class people are NOT welcome is basically what he is saying.
😮 You’re EXACTLY right, of course; imposing strict white collar “middle-class” values, tenants, and rules on to blue collar, “working-class” people is not feasible, and will never work. The two groups have DRASTICALLY different mentalities or priorities so it’s a bit like trying to force a square peg into a round hole.
Fortunately, the Middle-Class is shrinking every single day, while the rich get richer, and the huge number of lower-class, hard-working stiffs at the bottom just keep getting larger and stronger in size.
By all accounts the premise and reality of the 2006 comedy “Idiocracy” is just around the corner, thankfully. We’re getting closer each and every day! And I, for one, just can’t WAIT to have a machine gun-toting, neck and face tattoo-wearing President/Dictator for life running the show! It’s gonna be GREAT. Just you wait and see. Freedom for everybody! 😅
Correct. 👍
They should ban Miller as well
HOAs in the land of the free is a bizarre contradiction.
a dichotomy?
Yeah I was being fined 400$ a month for my truck bumper being 5 inches passed the sidewalk!!! I had lived there 4 years no problem. The second phase got built and the HOA was enacted and then the TYRANTS CAME ALIVE!!
I moved into a subdivision WITHOUT an HOA!!!
I haven’t heard of a situation like that before. Did the developer share the planned covenants with you before you made the purchase? If not, I would talk to a lawyer.
@@aliannarodriguez1581 this was 18 years ago. I don’t remember. But even if there was something written out about Blocking a sidewalk,,, I wasn’t BLOCKING it.. 36 in sidewalk in a 8 ft span leaving 32 inches for pedestrians??? That’s worth fining me 400$ a month? If you say yes to this then you probably are one of those types..
@@1073wheeler I was just trying to understand how they jump started the HOA like that. A rule that allowed them to implement a $400 fine for that is pretty crazy, and it’s the kind of thing we would all like to be warned about before we put our money down for a house, not after the fact. It sounds like the developer was hiding things to keep people from turning and running.
The 3 best selling vehicles in the USA are trucks. How does this make sense.CCRs written 30 years ago?
They need someone on their board with some common sense.
Those boards attract people who have never had any authority in their lives. Frustrated cops, frustrated polititions, frustrated failures. Give them a little authority and watch them demonstrate class envy in a big way.
If you move into an HOA community you know what you did. Abide by the rules don’t bitch about it after.
pass law to limit the HOA FEES and ASSESSMENTS $4k to cut $30k trees $850 month for a condo you own (no pool no gym 1 week mow blow go and they will not take care of building or deck)...........
About time the state start standing up to these HOA communities.
I’ve lived in a non-HOA neighborhood in Colorado for the last 24 years. It’s a nice, quiet neighborhood with typical family homes. No one parks their cars on their lawn or paints their house pink. I cannot remember a single occurrence during that time when someone had parked anything like the “obnoxious vehicles” that guy was describing. And even if they had, the neighbors I have are not so uptight to care. I’m entertaining the idea of selling my house and moving out of state, and one of the concerns I have is either finding another non-HOA home or one in an HOA with very few rules. I absolutely hate the thought of having to live in an HOA neighborhood.
Get over yourself. We live in a suburb of Boston. There is no HOA. There is a house down street that is pink. I don’t particularly care for the color, but so what? It is their house, not mine, and the color they chose doesn’t impact the value of my house whatsoever. A house down the street became rundown as the elderly homeowner declined. That didn’t affect my home value. Eventually that homeowner passed and his 1,300 sq ft ranch was replaced by a 2,500 sq ft colonial that is now worth about $1.5M. The house across the street also got run down as the elderly couple declined. They have passed and a contractor is rebuilding the house. That also hasn’t affected our home value.
You know what has affected our home’s value? Our excellent school system. Out 1,500 sq ft ranch built in 1950 on a cut through street is worth over $700k.
You don’t have to make everyone else live how you do in order to preserve your home’s value. You simply want to control how your neighbors live, which is truly arrogant and disgusting.
I would say you got lucky in getting neighbors that shared your ideas about what is and isn’t appropriate. You might feel differently if even a single neighbor (or overseas investor) wanted to make money by renting out their house to twenty adults who filled the street and front yard with their cars, and used the backyard to store commercial vehicles. This is, unfortunately, not an uncommon scenario and is becoming even more frequent as housing gets more expensive.
@@aliannarodriguez1581 No, there are zoning laws and town bylaws that prevent such behavior. And if a neighbor is a plumber and parks his work van in the driveway, so what? That wouldn't lower my property value either and it would let me know he is a plumber and could do work for me when I need it.
You need to visit New England and the Midwest. You will find many, many very nice communities with varied housing stock that don't all look the same, that don't have HOAs, and are very nice places to live. Stop trying to control how your neighbors live. It's not any of your business what color they paint their house or what plants they grow in their garden or what color they paint their fence, or if they park a pickup truck in their driveway. None of that will reduce the value of your home -- you may think it will but you are wrong. Stop with the kneejerk reaction to try to control others. Live and let live and you will be a lot happier.
We have lived in our home for over 30 years and neighbors have come and gone. Our experience has nothing to do with luck.
@@aliannarodriguez1581what you describe literally DOES NOT happen. 😂
Florida is different, people love freedom and will park rv on sidewalk, work trucks on the front lawn, they want and need HOA.
Lawyers make money and solve nothing.
Lawyers are thieves, that’s why most politicians are lawyers.
Stop buying in a HOA.
This is spun so pro-HOA it is nauseating.
They certainly found the poster child for HOA reform when they showed us the lawyer near the end.
