re: About to get into a fight with HOA over parking policy inside the community

I asked this in another thread, but can someone clarify here.
On what authority does an HOA operate? I've seen where they can go as far as putting a lean on your property. How the hell is that even possible?
Are their names put anywhere on the tax roll/mortgage? If not, I don't see how a private entity has as much authority as the government.
Just curious where all that power comes from.
TIA

I assume you sign something when purchasing property giving them that authority but I'm not sure cause I don't have an HOA

It is usually established when the neighborhood first gets going. There is a managing firm hired but the funds collected are used for the benefit of the neighborhood.
Rules come from the bylaws that were established at creation
If an individual does not pay dues then yes a lien can be placed on home.

Forget liens for not paying dues.
What pisses me off about HOAs is when you need PERMISSION to do alterations to your own property.
There was a huge lawsuit snafu sometime back when a resident apparently had some personal bad blood with someone on the HOA committee, and they denied the petition to add a deck to their home. Did it anyway and mired the community in litigation as the HOA rose hell to collect penalty fines for ignoring their "authority."

Like apply enough lateral force to your house to make it rack?

Good question. Maybe if you got enough residents from the community together to push, but that still seems pretty unlikely.
