re: You're nothing but a liberal if you support HOAS

the HOA fees that have no limits.
Which is why I won’t buy a condo.
I’ll just rent by the month if I have a hankering to live on the beach.

You should always get a copy of the HOA documents before you purchase. But it’s not communism or being liberal. Some people like additional rules to maintain uniformity of upkeep and aesthetics. If you don’t like the rules, don’t buy in that neighborhood.
Amazing how many people don't understand this simple concept. Victim mentality.

I only buy properties in a HOA, but I can’t say that I’ve ever viewed their primary function as setting rules and regulations.
I had an issue with one about where tenants stored garbage cans, but that’s about it.

Low IQ morons. Typical leftists always playing the victim.

I fricking hate rules. But I like living ina well maintained neighborhood that keeps my property values up.
I am close with two guys who are the president of their own HOA. Both are anti- HOA types that got elected by the neighborhood because people trust them to not be adult crossing guards. So, there is a middle ground. Just put reasonable people on the HOA.

. There are houses worth millions of dollars near me in downtown Orlando with no HOA. You don't see any of that going on. They are maintained in pristine condition.
Sigh.
Hoas aren't meant for ultra wealthy properties. Those places will always price themselves out of problem people.
Hoas are for people who's biggest net worth is their home and don't want it to be put in jeopardy because of trashy neighbors.
A well run HOA is a fantastic thing. A poorly run HOA is a bad thing. Just like any other poorly run operation.

News reports often of outrageous “special assessments” for condo commandos.

Sure they can you massive POS. This HOA board created a new rule saying you have to leave your garage door open.

I agree. Why would anyone buy property that is governed by an HOA?
I understand old people buying in a retirement community and I guess there are people who buy a McMansion that don't want to live a "hood" and cannot afford more than a postage stamp plot, but why else would you buy into a HOA area?

Most of it results from new Florida laws concerning condo structure safety regulations and condo associations that kept deferring maintenance until it had to be fixed.
If you’re looking at a condo, get the past minutes as well to see what is going on. The owner could have an upcoming assessment reason to be selling.

I don't care if people choose to live in a neighborhood that has stupid authoritarian rules. You shouldn't either.

Having something as the French Quarter is a historical protected area, it is not on a level of a suburban neighborhood. Protecting historic buildings and worrying about a flag flying over garbage cans out to long is a bit different.

I've never had trash neighbors that just junk up their property. Maybe some long grass at times, but never a nightmare neighbor that I'd pay a premium to not have in my neighborhood, along with being told what I can and can't do with my property.
Zillow has a pretty cool feature where you can set the HOA to "No HOA". When I've been in the market for a house, that is the first thing I look for.
But agreed, if someone wants to buy in an HOA area, you're freely engaging in the contract. . .

It's definitely a weird description.
Free men contracting with other free men is the opposite of communism.

Joe, that’s great advice, but you’re carrying sand to the beach. The presence of a HOA is a deal breaker for me.
Posted on 12/10/25 at 7:54 am to Dex Morgan
You are free to live in one or not if you don’t want to
