Living next to an HOA board member can turn homeownership into a real headache. One resident shared how their neighbor, who sits on the board, keeps sending violation letters—even for weeds under the deck and around the backyard trampoline. After a $50 fine, they even lost access to the pool and tennis courts. It’s got people talking: Should HOAs really have the power to dictate what you plant or how you garden, especially when eco-friendly yards are better for the planet? Some say these rules protect property values, but others feel it’s just control gone wild. What’s your take? #Home #HOA #Homeownership
