People who complain about a HOA deserve no sympathy. People who move into a communty with an HOA agree to the restrictions. Anyone can Goggle HOA and read strories about HOA boards BEFORE they buy into a restricted community. Anyone who doesn't read the HOA rules for the community before they buy are fools.

There are alot who like the idea that your neighbor can't paint their house purple. To me, a flag pole in front of every house and toys all over the neighborhood do not appeal to me. Typically, there are afew who have issues because they regret moving into the community.

Raising annual dues to build up a reserve is often frowned on many who feel if they move they will never get to see the money they paid into the fund used. Then, when an assessment is required, they complain about the money.

 Look at the condos in Florida that are being condemned because they voted against spending money on repairs.

For the record, we have owned a condo with a HOA.
