It seems like all the weird stuff happens in Vegas.
People in the Spring Valley Homeowners Association are outraged after someone sent out letters, supposedly from the HOA’s law firm asking owners not to rent or sell their homes to Blacks, Orientals, Jews.
Obviously, such a letter wasn’t sent out by an HOA. It’s just an idiot sending out a hate letter meant to provoke.
On the other hand, that’s nearly identical to the verbiage in tens of millions of real estate deeds in HOAs all across America. It’s nearly impossible to get that old language taken out of property records. Our history haunts us, doesn’t it?

Hi Ward,
I have to say that I wholeheartedly disagree with you about where, or from whom, this hate letter originated. It is really sad to say know a number of many more than one HOA board member, a number of a lot more than one HOA attorney, or other attorney, and a number of a lot more than one HOA homeowner on their own, or maybe even in co-hoots with an HOA board member, HOA attorney, or other attorney who would think nothing of sending out, or passing out a letter like this anonymously! It could even be an employee of the HOA attorney, or someone who has access to HOA attorney letterhead and the HOAs “stamp.” Maybe, this HOA board sends out their own letters on the HOA attorneys letterhead. This would not be the first time I have seen this “arrangement” either. I would suspect an attorney involved with an HOA board with this “arrangement” is billing for every letter too. You may be giving some really abusive, racist, bigoted and criminal HOA boards, some HOA attorneys and possibly other accomplices too much leeway in situations like this Ward!
