I live in a community that has an HOA, that means a homeowners association.
I don’t know if you’ve ever lived in a community with a homeowners association but let me just tell you it’s not all it’s cracked up to be.
Normally a homeowners association is supposed to make things for residents in the community easier, but this homeowners association seems to make my life a residing hell hole. One thing I can’t rest about the homeowners association is that they are consistently having meetings during times when I can’t attend. So last time they had a meeting, I found out they were trying to run a campaign to regulate the temperature of all the control units and pretty much everyone’s home! The homeowners association in my city doesn’t pay the energy costs in each individual condo so I don’t see why it matters what the temperature of our homes is. Turns out they are trying to get a yellow label on our community meaning that each homeowner has taken special precautions inside their condo to be more efficient. I don’t want a more efficient home. I already pay enough money to live in this community and pay enough money to the homeowners association but I’m not sure why they are or even bother making us put restrictions on our heating and cooling systems. I am so annoyed by this and I don’t know if I can continue to live in a city that has a homeowners association that wants so much control over each individual home, it feels like it’s too much to deal with.
