Why does a family with a handicapped child even have to go through this kind of a lawsuit?
Why?
Damn Homeowners Associations!
Damn them!
Sorry to be so emotional.

It seems some homeowners in the Savanna, Georgia area have their panties-in-a-bunch over what they believe is an illegal kickback scheme between developer DR Horton and the cable company. They’ve filed a lawsuit saying they’re each being cheated out of $100 a month.
Sadly, they won’t win. Homeowners almost never, ever do, especially against giant developers like DR Horton. Nope, the developers have the inside track with local government officials. There’s lots of money that slides back and forth at that level.
Still, you’ve gotta give these homeowners credit for trying.
Yes, always, always learn from your enemy. That’s why we have a CIA. It’s why we have an NSA. These top secret government spy organizations were created to eavesdrop, to snoop, to sniff out what America’s enemies were thinking, and planning, and doing.
That’s why this peek at the CAI, the Community Associations Institute is so important. They’re urging homeowners to attend HOA meetings and vote. CAI is arrogant enough to figure that homeowners will vote to keep their corrupt HOA lobbying organizations in power. But their message shouldn’t be lost on any of us.
A high-rise residential tower in Baltimore is filing for bankruptcy after a homeowner won a lawsuit against the condo association. Instead of repairing his mold problems they fought him all the way through the court system. In the process, this idiotic condo board discovered the mold problems were real and now they’re having to do repairs on the entire high-rise. Their claimed losses are anywhere from ten million to fifty million dollars.
Anybody want to buy a ritzy Maryland apartment? Dirt cheap?
It’s amazing how many homeowners don’t have a clue about the extent of organized corruption in the whole Homeowners Association industry.
Las Vegas? The feds convict 43 HOA ‘insiders’ for stealing 60 million dollars.
South Carolina? Well, this one is interesting. Up to five dozen Homeowners Associations have joined in a lawsuit against one of the state’s largest HOA management companies. Once again, endemic corruption. These homeowners have absolutely no idea how much has been stolen from them. The owner of the company admits she was stealing. Tears. Sobs. Regret that she got caught.
