[TowerTalk] HOA Abuse

[John Langdon]

My objection is to the injustice of the magnitude of the loss on the
homeowner's part to cover a small HOA fee and tacked on legal costs.  

The HOA board should never have allowed this to happen to a serviceman who
was overseas. I think the HOA directors are scumbags for watching it take
place.

It is bad PR for the HOA at minimum, and if some smart attorney really got
interested, I am sure they could find several procedural or filing problems
in some aspect of the HOA's registration and operation that would allow the
HOA to be taken apart, possible leading to individual liability for those on
the HOA board. 

This is a fine example of the difference in the letter of the law and the
spirit of the law, and really bad karma like this sometimes wakes people up
to a needed change in the letter of the law to better reflect the spirit.

The guy agreed to the HOA rules.  They did not respond to
the bills.  You don't pay your bills, you lose what you have.

I am not real sure where the issue is.

Turns out the guy may have legal recourse - and he is pursuing it.  

Sounds like the system is working.

I am not pro-hoa, just feel that if you AGREE to be bound by
a HOA's rules, then crying about those rules afterwards is pretty
stupid.
