David Hernandez+FollowDrywall mudding is not so unreliable as many people thinkI always see homeowners jump to say "How on earth is this ever going to look right?!?!? Jeeze!" when they find their workers doing drywall mudding. But here's the truth: mudding isn't just a step; it's the essential process that pulls everything together and makes those walls look seamless. A truly great mudder can hide a multitude of sins. A bad one? They won't hide a thing. #Drywall #HomeRenovation #ConstructionFails #HomeownerLife #BehindTheScenes #HomeDecor 1216Share
Jennifer Russell+FollowUnpopular Opinion: I Actually LOVE My HOA?! 😂I know everybody has just heard all the HOA horror stories, but I just bought into an HOA, and honestly I'm loving it. My dues are only about $200 a year, and they pretty much just cover mowing common areas and plowing snow. When I bought my first house years ago, I swore I'd never live in an HOA. That decision led to five years of dealing with some seriously trashy neighbors, constant arguments over street parking, and loud parties at all hours. It was a headache. But now, all that chaos is just gone. Nobody's parking on the street. Nobody's using loud tools at random times of the day or night. And no houses have twenty people crammed into them. It's peaceful, and it's amazing. So am I the only one who's actually had a great experience with an HOA? 😳 #HOA #HomeownerLife #UnpopularOpinion #CommunityLiving #GoodNeighbors #RealEstate #Home00Share

Paige Douglas+FollowHOA Ruined My Garden—Now What?Ever had your garden wiped out by someone else’s mistake? One homeowner is fuming after their HOA’s hired crew nuked their plants with weed killer, turning a thriving yard into a wasteland.
