Phuck Denton county and our HOA.

[F350-6]

Since it sounds like your landlord bought the house to be a rental, and probably doesn't want to live there, now's the time to reach out to your landlord and talk about a rent to own, lease/purchase, owner finance type deal where you start buying the house from him now instead of later.

He can't rent it to someone else, so he's go to mess with clean and show and sell, or he could agree to tote the note, even with no additional down payment at the moment.

Does Denton county have the hold on evictions during the mexian beer thing? If so, the landlord could send you a wink wink, eviction notice, you could claim the can't be evicted thing and the landlord could get around any fines for a while as a result.

The only HOA Worth living in was one where we were on the board.

I saw we as in several family members and it was a 6 year battle to eject the little Hitler's and get it to where people left folks alone. Those bastards actually ended up liening and owning a couple properties. Shady shit. This was in AZ in the 80s.

HOAs in California can be and have been really bad.

I wouldn't know. But, it sounds like they're here.

You gonna shoot your landlord or the HOA president?

The OP doesn't own anything involved here, and the landlord signed up for the HOA

Holy shit the bravado in here...

Holy shit, the display of condescension in here.

As a builder, who has dealt with countless little hitlers in HOA’s, and as the current President of a POA, with regard to both as a danger to private property rights, you’d eventually do well to keep your powder dry ...

Lol ...
You did better than that in your days of “Most hated member”.

From friends and family that live in bigger cities, I hear HOA can range from great to really bad.

But being restricted in any way of what I can or can't do with, or on my own property, just doesn't seem natural to me.

I’m sure whoever is in the board of your current HOA feels the same way.

Or just not buy property controlled by an HOA in the first place. Why would you want to put your property under the rule of someone else in the first place?

Sounds to me like a great time to offer to buy at a good discount.

Good luck to you though. I hope you find a place that doesn't have HOA restrictions.

My wife's sister moved 7 times in 9yrs. They are nucking futs

Unfortunately many in urban areas have little choice in the matter, as many HOA's are setup by tract home, town home, and condominium developers to the point that a highly profitable, legal cottage industry has sprung up to help them with the drafting and enforcement of the charter and bylaws .

... funny how that often works out to be at the expense and detriment of a future property owner.

Factor in the understandable ignorance of the built-in legalities by board members chosen from the pool of owners, always with those who can't resist turning their service into a power grab over the neighbors ... give'em an inch, they take a mile, and the lawyers get rich.

When building or remodeling it was not unusual to have to make frequent meetings with HOA boards, who had to approve everything, down to the type and weight of a shingle, and the color of the gutters.

Piss an uninformed board member off and both you and your client will pay the price, one way or another.

IMO, HOA's are generally a pox on the concept of ownership of private property, designed to favor of what passes for "community" good, but often more reminiscent of a socialist society.

Everybody loves HOAs until something goes sideways and then the HOA is evil. It is a recurring theme seen over and over again (yes, doubly redundant for emphasis).

I’m from the opposite end of the spectrum.

I hate HOAs and assume they’re evil from the get-go.

Ok, I had to google bravado .......

 

[oldag]

I have avoided HOA's except for one occasion. But that was in an older subdivision with just a club house/park for common facilities. And it was not a tiny subdivision, so dues were maybe $40-50 a month. No hassles.

I have heard of many HOA's that were real pains. Give a little person a little power...

I'm the president of our HOA, and the wife is the VP!

That sounds like an accurate representation!

I don't need some drunken housewife who serves no purpose in society to tell me what to do with my house. Just nope.
