[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the recourse?   They write you a letter.  Big deal.

Breaking a rule is not breaking the law.  No way that is enforceable. [/quote]

You don't know anything about HOAs. They can issue citations that carry fines, and if you don't pay, they can put a lien on your house. If HOAs had no legal enforcement authority they would effectively not exist, actually, they do exist.

Now whether the particular rules are illegal in the first place is a different story - I have no idea if it's possible to make such restrictions with any kind of property ownership agreement - but if the rules are legal, they can damn well enforce them with teeth.[/quote]

I know plenty about HOAs.  I was even on a board at one time 6 or 7 years ago.

I can promise you that nobody is filing a lien or fining you over a curfew issue. Never happening.  Rules like this exist to give them latitude in the event that somebody is really abusive or disrespectful to neighbors.  That’s it. [/quote]
