HOA are just such a strange concept because they could be such a useful force that has been corrupted into an engine of uniformity and roadblocks.
You would think a local organized organization would be quick and nimble to meet the needs of it’s small group of citizens who know each other. But they got bogged down in petty arguments and minor aesthetic changes. Local municipal governments got stuck in the same trap. Too much regulation of minor aesthetic issues.
I don’t know the solution but interesting
It just goes to show that the structure and context matters a lot to how an organization functions. Even small organizations need to be set up with the right principles in order to function well.
That’s true. Also smaller organization can be easily taken over my petty individuals for their petty needs
HOAs had a significant role in prohibiting black people from owning homes which, along with redlining (prohibiting mortgages by banks) carved out entire areas which only allowed whites. HOAs don’t have a great history.
That makes complete sense. Not a great history continues to not a great present
HOA is hot bed of crime and power tripping mods lol
So much money is being wasted there, self dealing contracting and our right theft.
Imagine having to live around the type person who thinks HOA is good lol
