We don't have them in Australia that I'm aware of, but they do sound atrocious. What happened to that land of the free?
They're basically just groups that are supposed to help prevent one person tanking everyone's property value by letting their home go to shit.
The problem is that typically the only people who get involved in them are retired busy bodies who want to assert what little power they have. Good ones too exist, though.
Yeah. The idea of what is bad for properties values is extremely subjective and some people take it to such extremes as to not let there ever be something they don't like.
Eg, houses can only be painted a very select few shades. Lawns have to be trimmed short and even a short vacation could get you a fine. Cars can't be parked on driveways overnight. You must have at least 3 flower beds of a minimum size. Trash bins can only be brought out in the morning and not the night before. Etc etc. Anything you can imagine a cranky neighborhood complaining about, some HOA probably has a rule for.
There's lots of common sense rules you could have. It's easy to picture a stereotypical crack den that you wouldn't want in your neighbourhood. But there's also a lot of people whose idea of a good neighborhood is cookie cutter white suburbia with no personality. If you try to have anything else, they'll fine you. If you try and fight the fines, you risk losing your house cause you can bet they'll try to make you pay any legal fees and they can probably get a lien on your house.
