[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to live in a community with an HOA and had to comply with all their rules though it was occasionally annoying. Now I’m in the Town of Vienna and there’s no HOA. It’s about 50/50 new construction vs. old homes. The new construction lawns are all trim and pleasant to look at, but a good number of the older home owners have given up and let their fences fall apart and let the weedy vines take over. Unpleasant to look at and even more unpleasant to deal with when they border us.[/quote] +1[/quote] Then buy in a tract subdivision where all homes are the same, or in the HOA communities or in gated estate communities. Problem solved. It's why these places exist. You want cheaper prices you will have to deal with living among people with lesser means and their crappy homes, weeds, chain link fences, cluttered carports and multiple junky cars. This is a feature, not a bug. until they all die out, or sell. But some are starting to pass their homes onto their kids who don't look like they make a lot of money either to keep up to your standards, just hope they sell to cash out (unlikely if they need a place to live) and have fun with construction noise.
