Lmao rich.. he only spent 1000 to get more fines and bring is own property value down. Sounds like a loss in my book, way better ways to deal with shit neighbors personally lol. Call HOA on them or idk just dont buy a home where you cant have control over your own home lol.
@@peiteljorge1 Nah, his own property value is artificially lowered. Time to sell? Get rid of the clunkers; no big deal. Also, he gets some entertainment value out of the deal. If I had obnoxious neighbors, and plenty of disposable income, I could spend far more than a grand, to irritate those people, and I'd consider it money well spent. And, if I came into millions of dollars, my grand finale would be to buy another house, elsewhere, then find a family of meth and heroin addicts, and give them the house with the wretched neighbors; I'd sign the deed right over.
Wrong. Most house parks like this with an HOA are young families with children. My niece and her husband live in one and it's young people mostly from 28 to 40.
@@l33pul You own the house. And I agree with you, it should be no one else's business what you do with yours. However HOAs don't feel that way. And disgracefully our laws backs them up on most of their petty tyrannical whims. So much for freedom. Some HOAs are worse than others, depends on the ppl running them too. Some states are worse than others depending on the extent and power the law grants HOAs. There are horror stories like this woman in Nevada who fell behind on her HOAs payments (not her mortgage) after family members died and dealing with her illness whose $400+k home was sold by HOA (yes, you heard right, HOA and not her mortgage bank) at an auction for $30K, or this woman in Florida who fell behind on HOA payments and HOA kicked out her tenants and leased it out collecting the rent while legally barring the woman owner from entering and stepping on HER property. Outrageous imo. This is my current understanding. If you live in US, might wanna reconsider owning a home in an HOA and if you are you might wanna do research on that particular HOA and their practices.
Hitlers of America H O A Who cares about these cars. Life Liberty Pursuit of Happiness " oh, you have cracked paint behind the bush by your garage " Okay, I'll repaint that section. " no. You have to paint the whole house and also.... " " We have a new paint supplier for the community. Your house is too close to the same color as your neighbors, so you have to choose a different color and paint the whole house. " I married into this neighborhood. Home values OVER FREEDOM
People that have problems with HOAs shouldn’t live in neighborhoods with HOAs. Pretty simple. HOAs exist to try to keep people like this guy from making neighborhoods look like trash.
@bigwaverider And I guess you also don't do well with people just BS'ing do you? Lol. Sorry I didn't take the time to be More accurate. I shouldn't have said EVERYONE. because that is false, and I do NOT speak for everyone. Let me clarify... Its only 99% of people hate HOAs. There, do you feel a little better now? Now go out and measure the height of someone's lawn and write a citation lol
I also have a hooptie, but it's my hooptie and I love it. It's not my problem that the vinyl on the backseat doors are peeling off, that's for my rear passengers to worry about.
Nicole Lassila when I was had a landscaping business I was trimming a tree that the HOA refused to maintain, someone stopped by and told me I wasn't allowed to. I asked when they were going to maintain and he didn't seem interested in that conversation. You couldn't back in to a parking place or driveway either.
Nicole Lassila You guys are smart. I THOUGHT I could deal with it but now we're selling. F this. This has been the worst investment of my life. HOA are scammers. If your house is paid in full and you don't pay HOA you can still face foreclosure.
Cars with Character, it's a cheap attempt to make sure your license plate is exposed to the street, to cut down on unregistered vehicles. All states require a plate on the rear. Makes it so you cant collect unregistered cars, and it would be trespassing for them if they had to walk up your driveway and behind your car, to check, if it were parked the other way.
Nonnof Yobiznes You're right. I guess I'll craft an apology to those liberals. I'm so very sorry that you liberals have embraced a false narrative from a biased media, and I wish I could make it all better for you in your little safe spaces. I apologize for the history of this great country that so offends your emotional well being, and I truly wish the pain goes away over time. And I would like to convey my heartfelt wishes that one day you will come to realize that as an American and a patriot, I will end your suffering quickly and quietly should you choose to take that path to glory.
You don't move to an HOA neighborhood as a place to mind your own business you do it so you have more rules to follow. That's why you get a place with some land where you can basically do what you want, not an HOA.
Dude is my hero. I USED to live in a neighborhood just like that. The HOA sent a letter if someone spotted your garage door open and you were not in process of driving in or out of it.
Darin- USMC B- 85-93 well could be rightly fair about it, if it is a business it's a total loss and he can write it off as a tax deduction of whatever he loses. But I think he's done it for nonprofit. Lol
That can be only done if those streets are private driveways. If they are owned by the state, they shouldn't be able to do much about it as far as I know.
Exactly! I don’t feel sorry for that dumbass at all. He moved into a home controlled by an HOA, which has the legal right to tell him what he can and can’t do on his property.
@@christinaburney5935 anyone who wants into my safe better have a gun to my head but even that won't get me to open it. That's just gunne get you shot with your own gun
You do that no matter where you buy in the US. You have to pay property taxes, and you have a county inspector. It just depends on how much dictation you want others to have on you where you live.
@@nukepuke932 Taxes is one thing. Inspector? I've never once had an inspection from any local authorities. Running your private wishes is quite another. You can't liken one to the other.
I'm always at a loss as to why people move into an HOA neighborhood when they really have no intention of following the rules. We have a neighbor who acts as if he is living in a singlewide on some remote piece of property. He burns trash in his tiny backyard (which is against the law) and has parked about 6 unmarked pickup trucks in front of his neighbor's homes as he is running a "business" out of his house. His side yard is full of leftover trash and supplies. He's too cheap to dispose of his business trash properly or park his company vehicles in a storage lot or to rent an actual business location. Another neighbor thought he's start a fence business and was piling up his customer's old fence sections in front of his house weekly for bulk trash pickup. The city put a stop to that pretty quick.
The reason is usually called "WIFE". All some of them see is social status, manicured lawns, and the potential for lots of conflict and drama. All of these things they covet like the oxygen they breathe.
No lie man. I hear you. My dad got this done to him with his house and HOA, because he had a car parked behind house. Couldn’t see it from any angle on the street. Before long, he was figuring out revenge tactics too. If they got you in their sights, they don’t let up.
Anyone who even considers living anywhere associated with a HOA is completely crazy!! If I'm buying a house I'm making alllllllll the decisions concerning MY HOUSE!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍😎
@@williamphillips6049 I always thought places with a HOA were more expensive. At least that's the way it is where I live. I don't mean to step on anyone's toes.
@@kathydbrumfieldb8753 Your opening statement was loaded with symbols: "Thumb ups" and happy faces detailing how happy you were and how crazy we are. Am I speaking to a different person now? You are lucky. You are right to be extremely grateful that you don't have to put up with half the crapp I have to go through. I am not crazy. I, and those few I like, are just stuck here. Unless you're living in a condo in Fat Cat Liberaltown USA; there is nothing better than your own house, your own yard and an eight foot high fence. In fact the wealthiest condo is just a nice, somewhat private, mental asylum.
It’s probably one neighbor. I had one who , to name a couple of things, called the police on me for leaf blowing at 11am on a weekday and called the fire department on me for bbq-ing. I turned it up on her though. Construction right when the noise ordinance dropped off (7am she didn’t get up until 2-3pm, she was unemployed). I had a shop vac and an engraver set up to turn on randomly over wifi for when I was at work. She finally moved out.
Prairie Viking worst part is they’ll start charging him boatloads of fines for the cars and then repo his house. Can’t win against these guys with current legislation
I used to have one, could not kill it, I tried, within reason of course. I didn’t actually want to kill it 😆 350K miles and you could still red line it for like 4 minutes straight no problem.
I got a notice from my HOA to clean up the vegetation in front of the house. Only problem is, it’s not my vegetation. They literally sent me a letter to trim stuff that isn’t even on my property. That’s the level of petty HOA’s engage in. Making their ‘problems’ yours.
I bought an old farmhouse with about 4 acres left after the previous owner sold the rest off to a developer, my driveway now comes off of the new street but my property was kept separate from the HOA by the previous owner! They try to fine me for things a couple if times a month, having my garden, building a shed, especially when I bring my big truck home lol. So much fun to see them get upset when I tell them to piss off I'm not subject to their shit. They even tried at one point to make me pave my driveway as that's a requirement in the HOA.
I knew someone selling a house that had a next door neighbor paint their house pink. It made it hard to sell his house with a pink house next door. He swore he would only live in HOA neighborhood from that point on. He even got on the HOA board. I’d rather just live somewhere that doesn’t have neighbors.
i would've gone over and painted "KAME HOUSE" on it. then everyone would want to buy his house because the would say "I want to live next to Master Roshi".
Hoa’s are for people who like things done for them. Young wealthy couples starting families. Currently live in a new community just being built, and the hoa won’t even allow you to do things to your backyard without your neighbors(both sides) literally signing off on it. You have to go next door and ask them to sign a physical paper. Edit: luckily, I’m not here permanently. I hate everything about the hoa and the one male Karen that ruins it for everyone tbh.
This is one of the many reasons I have very few neighbors. I live in a fenced 30 acre area. Nobody ever bothers anyone. People shoot guns. Run generators, ATVs, motorbikes. They burn trees and brush they clear. Nobody complains. I lived in a Townhouse once with a HOA. These miserable people were constantly complaining about every damn thing. Never again.
Had a friend who bought a Florida house as a vacation home He ended up with 20k in fines for "empty house" He isnt even an American, he lives in canada. Works in canada. He immediately sold the house, never paid any of those "fines" Fck hoa
it's about class. They don't want "a bad element" in their neighborhood. He's obviously too blue collar for their taste; so they want to reform or relocate the commoner. He earned that house. They can sit and spin.
My son made the mistake of moving into a new HOA housing. He has some friends, with money and connections, that don't mind helping him out. Through his friends he had a ballpark with all the trimmings built. He also had a nice playground built for the kids. For the 4th July celebrations they provided several thousand dollars worth fireworks All this at no charge. The HOA board hated him. They did anything/everything they could to cause trouble for him. After several years he found a non HOA housing area. In the few months he has lived there his new neighbor love him. His old neighbors would love for him to come back.
HOA’s inevitably become bully pulpits of the old and retired busybodies who want to enforce their last remaining and weakened form of will on the strong and willing.
I have the same problem along with a few other neighbors in my neighborhood. The funny thing is the criminals target the neighbors with the $50,000.00 cars that are foolishly parked infront of their driveways in the dead of night. Then, they wonder why their cars are always being broken into. The crooks go after the wealthier neighbors, because they know where the money is.
james pogrebetsky I believe what you mean to say is areas with low property values don't have HOAs, they're probably smarter. Plenty of good neighborhoods get by just fine without a big brother nanny
KFStreich I personally believe that HOA’s aren’t always the best to live in. But if an area gets an HOA , the prices will go up. It’s inherent in the process Controlling unruly owners and making sure everything is maintained, and doing background checks on renters, WILL increase values. Period. No matter what you want to say about HOA’s, you can’t possibly claim they don’t increase values
It's cool. As long as they run fine it's all fine. A lot better than a stupid car payment. Now that's just plain dumb. Most people just finances it. Broke people trying to look the part. I rather drive a old car that runs good and have $$$$ in the bank. Plus it just feels good when you look at a dealership lot and know you can drive home anything on that lot with cash. I once did a cash transaction at the dealer. They had no idea what to do with all that money. Not a clue. Sales person never seen so much cash in his life.
That is actually a good idea because my neighbours are always parking in front of my house (I park out back in my garage). I should get some old junkers and fill up my parking spaces in the front so the neighbours can't park in front of my house. GOLDEN!
Douglas Northpole parking in front of your house are not your spaces. You can park anywhere on a public street unless otherwise stated. You don't own any of the street so park them in front of their house. I would first talk to them maybe they think nothing of it.
Bob M...Yes, they are NOT my spaces. BUT, if I park some cars in those spaces, then I won't have broken beer bottles and thousands of smoke butts in front of my house from the teenagers next door in their rental property! I am just sick of sweeping up broken glass and smoke butts. I don't drink or smoke.
yeap those type of neighbors are my favorite. i once had a neighbor across street park on my drive way... don't know how many time they did this when i wasnt home or at work but i caught them one day and was going to call the tow company.. they confronted me apologized and thought that nobody was living in my house , bull shit i live there for 10 fucken years... so i gave them 5 mins to move their shit or eles... never happen again
If Neighbors park if front of your house you can have them towed. You are technically caretaker of the sidewalk next to your house, so parking on it is private property. Have them towed and the jerks that park in front of your house have to pay.
+Nethan Thielen you're an idiot .... There's zero laws saying someone cannot park on a public street in front of your house .... Please humor me wth a link to a actual municipal code saying so , go ahead , I'll wait ....
All of those fines from the HOA add up, and act as a lien on the house when he goes to sell it. If he has any neighbors that are as bad as him, he might get a brick through a window.
This dude is a hero. Now he gotta get a whole bunch of hispanics to play in his yard and. Few elders to play loud old music in the yard. When someone cones up to them. They say what? What are you sayin? I can't hear you son.
The dude is a hero. Just for future reference to anyone who wants to buy a house never and i mean never move into an area that has an HOA. I don't understand how people move into these areas knowing they don't really own their house and are being controlled.
This is how I see it. The guy as been thete 4 month and got s dozen letters of these commis. My guess is that someone on the HOA committee wanted that house but he beat them to it and so they come up with bullshit violations hoping he will move ..
I currently live in a non HOA neighborhood: Oakland, CA. Im reading some pretty scary things about HOA neighborhoods in the comments. I guess im fortunate. 🙃
Hey I live in Vallejo. Most of it is non HOA and every third house is rundown, not maintained or has a bunch of junk in their yards. Meanwhile I live on the hill in an HOA and our streets are immaculate and all the houses and property look sharp. Bottom line is that 30-40% of the population are lowlife trash and the HOAs are great for non lowlife people because they don’t have to be subjected to lowlife peoples habits and living standards
Heck yeah! I'm on this guy's side. Be thankful for what you have. Some people think they are better than everyone else. High class can become low class pretty quickly in today's world. As long as the cars are registered & insured they should be absolutely no issue. Now the neighbors can keep there blinds shut, have nightmares & cry major river's at night. Oh poor baby, Next get a rusted chair with a pretty cushion to set on the front porch.
The 90-93 Honda accord sitting on the street will run over 500k miles on stock drivetrain. It's no piece of shit it's also a coupe which makes it sought after. New cars look fancy but underneath they are the true pieces of shit.
Managed to get the last cool Volvo Sedan that looks slick without latency in their BRNAD SPANKING new line - all of them - stutter when you give them GAS... a PAUSE that could kill you in traffic - I didn't like it - you need to PLAN for the GAS DOWN "nothing happens" couple of seconds thing they do... GARBAGE... And UGLY now to boot... I got the last "cool sedan" they made! Snappy car too with that roll cage thing Volvos have - way cool.
In pretty good condition for junk cars. Anybody that calls those "old junkers" don't seem to realize the intended purpose is to get you where you need to go just the same as any new modern vehicle. If its reliable, i don't see why they get the hate they do. Easier to pay off or buy outright and easier to maintain.
