My mother inlaws HOA forbid putting Christmas lights up until after December 1st. They had lights up inside the day after Thanksgiving that somehow someone saw from the street and got a complaint filed.
I get the jist. Are you telling me that besides a possible HOA Fee, you then have to spend your own money to do things to your home that somebody else is requiring? On a home that isn't theirs......
Wooooo an organization that gives my neighbors and actual say in my life even if I literally don’t care what they have to say. Let me do what I want Karen
Thankfully we don't have these where I live. It sounds like a mafia with extra steps. You should be able to freely choose to engage with them reguardless of where you live. Afterall you are either free and own your property or you don't. Further community isn't something artifically created by threats of regulation and fines, it either exists or doesn't. Finally all this talk of communities and property values sounds a lot like the racism of the 50's ie not in my neighbourhood. Truely sad.
Hi there! That could be true for some HOAs. You would need to read the governing documents (CC&Rs, bylaws, etc.) to know if that rule applies to a particular community.
That sounds horrible, I will never understand how this is necessary. And also I have questions how do the hoas get founded? Is it possible to get out of the hoa?
Wow! That's INSANE! The HOA FEE'S add up quickly. NO WAY I will EVER buy a home in an HOA community. That's the joy of owning your OWN home, is to make your OWN decisions on what to do with it. Thanks for the info though.
I thought these things are only for condos or highrise. The point of living in a house is to have more freedom. Why the hell would you pay somebody to tell you what to do? Stupid idea.
@@chocolateccm Ah. Ok. But sue you based on what grounds exactly? What government mandated laws can they sue you over for violations of their local arbitrary rules?
@@NAT-di9xw Just like any legally binding agreement, homeowners and HOAs legally enter a legal agreement that state and local laws recognize upon signature of both parties. I read that HOAs brought a lawsuit against a homeowner for failing to adhere to vehicle regulations. The homeowner did an oil change on her property (which is forbidden) as a result it seeps down the water supply-- contaminating water in the community. The CC&Rs which stands for Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions outline rules and expectations that both parties must abide by. If you do a google search, you will find cases of HOAs suing homeowners for planting flowers, oil change, evicting or foreclosing people's homes for unpaid dues, or for not following the CC&Rs. It should be avoided to prevent these unpleasant outcomes.
@@chocolateccm So does one enter into a agreement with an HOA simply by buying property in a location with one? Or is there some type of official paperwork you have to sign to join one? Sounds like you would want to avoid joining one at all cost. And is there anyway to beat HOAs in court?
@@NAT-di9xw There are some cases where people have bought homes in an HOAs community, and signed the CC&Rs without reading or fully understanding the overly restrictive community they’ve joined. However, to enter into an HOAs one has to sign the CC&Rs paperwork, but some communities have an automatic membership once you purchase the home. Buying a property wherever does not always mean you are entering into HOAs. The HOA is usually very noticeable: as they are typically a gated community, with very limited access points, the houses and layout are similar if not almost identical, and the name of the community is at the entrances. I ran into one yesterday as I was trying to get a contract, but it was a senior community where the homeowners are 55 and older. Simply put, if you see a beautifully coordinated community that’s clean where the homes are very similar-it might be an HOAs community. It’s best to ask the realtor before making a decision or simply let them know you are not interested in any HOAs communities. I find them to be ideal for rental properties and public outdoor facilities such as parks, pools, athletic fields, and the like. Some homeowners like it has it keep or increase the value of their properties. It’s good for sustainability and safety within a community, but it’s not for every homeowner.
🅰️merica- Can't let go of lethal weapon because they think its against their freedom. Can't wear a mask during pandemic because its freedom of choice Also 🅰️merica- Lets an association dictate what they can do with their very own property 👏🏻👏🏻
For those who believe in a higher being, take note: the HOA disagrees. There is no higher being than the HOA.🤓 Thankfully, not all HOA's are that nice😏
Very helpful video thank you. If you could hang up a blanket or something to get rid of the echo in the room you are filming in then your videos would be totally professional. Video looks great though
Thanks so much for watching and thanks for the tip on the sound! We've played around with a couple of different mics but it always seems to have a metallic/echoed sound (user error I'm sure :P). Love the tip on the blanket - we are definitely going to give that a try!
Tons of value that we cannot afford. Enjoy the HOA and when european fashion style change, heaven help you. HOAs hate purple houses, THE FUCK IS THAT ABOUT?!
@@ARN012 Yeah until that community steals your home because you left your car in the driveway, or your grass was half an inch too long, or you thought you would hang an American Flag in your yard... NO, Screw the HoA's they are just mafias that rule through fear.
Don’t buy a house in a HOA community, problem solved. Is your choice, people. There are homes without HOA. People who buy in an HOA neighborhood knows what they are getting into.
What do you think? Is an HOA governed community right for you?
HOA is a travesty to freedom.
An HOA is a communist group run by democrats!
@@4xprops457 HOA is not a government authority. It’s a private organization.
Fuck no
It sounds like it really sucks
HOA is an organization in your community that you pay to tell you what to do with your own house.
Sooo .. it's socialist scam.
Funny how she goes through all the restrictions with a smile on her face.
Here’s my money business daddy.
So basically a community for Gays
These are bullshit.
Working with an HOA to win their approval and their trust? Can I get sick now?
My mother inlaws HOA forbid putting Christmas lights up until after December 1st.
They had lights up inside the day after Thanksgiving that somehow someone saw from the street and got a complaint filed.
Yikes! I'm so sorry to hear that!
HOA is shit
I get the jist.
Are you telling me that besides a possible HOA Fee, you then have to spend your own money to do things to your home that somebody else is requiring?
On a home that isn't theirs......
Wooooo an organization that gives my neighbors and actual say in my life even if I literally don’t care what they have to say. Let me do what I want Karen
HOAs are for squares
Omg,thank you for the video,no HAO for me.
It’s basically people who has nothing better to do and have control issues
If they’re going to pay my mortgage I’ll paint the house any color they want. If not, kick dirt...
HOA = Sad people with nothing better to do.
I just told my boyfriend before I saw this "People with way too much time an want to control people."
My house my rules no one gets to tell me what to do
Explaining how HOA protects the home appreciation value is the selling point to the client and you absolutely smashed that, awesome video!! 👏
HOA's not for everyone? They not for ANYONE!!!!!!
Question why u have to pay h.o.a
Don't buy a 🏠 that has a HOA crap hole. Don't do it

Thank you for this informative video on H.O.A.'s. I'll definitely AVOID houses in H.O.A. jurisdictions. 😝😝😝
Glad it was helpful! They're definitely not for everyone. 😊
Wise Move AZ
Or anyone
So do I have to pay HOA fees when the house is already built but it's not turned over yet?
So HOA is for picky people that want to look good and want their neighbors to have matching colors home like them.
Thanks for explaining. Now I know I'll never own a house with HOA.
To all the people saying, "avoid an HOA", this is quite frankly almost IMPOSSIBLE in 2022. Good luck finding a home without an HOA...
Thanks for the luck i just scored
Depends. If you buy in an older neighborhood there's a chance there is no HOA. House I bought last, year is not in an HOA.
In the Philippines we have baragays. it basically work like the HAO but the leaders are elected and it's a more hommy community
The audacity of people thinking they have the right to tell others what to do on their own property.
Very informative I love the 5 Must Know Tips idea!
Thank you so much for watching, Brian!
That’s okay not for me, I am not a sheep don’t need people to tell me how to live when they don’t pay my bills.
HOA is a joke .. can't do anything to your home but they want you to buy expensive stuff that you can't afford... Glad I left the HOA...
Is it true that car repairs are not allowed on the home owner’s property?
Hi there! That could be true for some HOAs. You would need to read the governing documents (CC&Rs, bylaws, etc.) to know if that rule applies to a particular community.
So I bought a $600,000 house and I can’t fix my own car ? I don’t think so
That sounds horrible, I will never understand how this is necessary. And also I have questions how do the hoas get founded? Is it possible to get out of the hoa?
Do not get a house that has HOA
Its a prison
Wow! That's INSANE! The HOA FEE'S add up quickly. NO WAY I will EVER buy a home in an HOA community. That's the joy of owning your OWN home, is to make your OWN decisions on what to do with it. Thanks for the info though.
Hola q puedo aser cuando el HOA te debe dinero
Never ever ever move into an hoa!
Bill G you’re right !
How come?
@@ThatDudeJCrash because you pay them to take your rights.
are HOA's homeowners allowed to rent out rooms for extra money??
I've had clients not read the CC&R's till after they buy the house and that's a HUGE mistake. Great recommendations Lindsay!
Ugh! Scary stuff! Nothing worse than buying a home and finding out you can't do something that you had your heart set on!
This feels like an introduction video into a cult....😬😬
Excellent video!
Thanks so much, Jenn! :)
Great topic!
Thank you so much, Kate! HOAs are VERY common here :)
I thought these things are only for condos or highrise. The point of living in a house is to have more freedom. Why the hell would you pay somebody to tell you what to do? Stupid idea.
Government within another Government? Yeah sounds like a great idea 😂
What is wrong with people? Why do they need HOA?
Very important information these days.
Thanks so much for watching, Philip! :)
What's wrong with lime green houses 😂
Always a great idea to review the CC&R's to avoid any surprises...such great info in this video!!
Absolutely! They're boring, but important! Thanks so much for watching!
I tell all my buyers to make sure they understand the HOA rules before they make the offer. Great video
It's so important! I'm sure your clients appreciate that advice. Thanks so much for watching, Paul! :)
My neighborhood is not an association.
If you don’t like it move
I only bow down to three things: God, the Constitution, and my wife.

This is some SS type bs. Thanks for the clarification Hot stuff.
Soo what exactly is the penalty for ignoring an HOAs bylaws. They are not a government entity. Its not as though they can press legislation.
They can fine & sue you! It sucks, but there are severe penalties for breaking those rules.

Totally! Very long, very boring, but SO important! 😂 Thanks so much for watching, Kerri!
she smashed a whole hoa board
Super information! Some people tend view HOAs as a negative, but, when run effectively, the really do a lot for the neighborhood.
You're so right, Emily! We are so lucky to have HOAs that run smoothly and efficiently here in Anthem!
So is dictatorship, Emily.
booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
What the ? Why will someone dictate what i have to do? Like this is bullshit! They call this country with a lot of freedom
karen be like....I know the HOA I can sue you.I know the HOA.
You’re so beautiful 😍
