Same here. No HOA and none needed. Local Neighborhood association (not the
same but serves us well) to help out folks. 100% voluntary.




When I asked to see the HOA rules and accouonting sheet, I saw that
15% of the people were not paying the required monthly dues. Some
owed over $3400. I guess if enough people decide not to pay, the HOA
would be gone. But its best to look elsewhere to buy a house.
