Common HOA Complaints (And How to Avoid Them)

HOAs are supposed to make life easier, but sometimes they cause more stress than they're worth. Common complaints include surprise fines, parking restrictions, and inconsistent rule enforcement. If you're dealing with these issues, you're not alone. Some residents recommend attending HOA meetings to stay informed, while others suggest moving to a community with no HOA at all.

The best advice? Do your homework before moving in.
