HOAs are good for multi-family housing like condos. Pretty lame for single family homes

HOAs are awful for anyone and very predatory please don’t make others think that’s it is somehow good at all

Sorry you had a bad experience. Like I said, they are good for multi-unit housing. Dues go towards fixing shared exterior structures like roofs, siding, garage doors, gutters, etc. Dues also cover maintenance of shared yards, parking lots, car ports, trash removal, etc.

I didn’t have a bad experience in saying in general they are not good. They may have good intentions but money, greed, and companies create awful situations for people who can’t get out of their purchased condos

Yeah, most HOAs are run by the residents and don't fall into that generalization.
