So I check my new HOA's FB page. What do I see? Someone posts a picture of a garden flag with "Defund the HOA". They wanted to know if they would get a fine for putting it up... Others then started responding that they wanted one as well... This is all fun and games and funny. I do get humor after all. However, it also shows how little many of my neighbors know about HOA's and how they work. On that level it's kind of painful...

I just responded that a HOA is ONLY funded by it's members for it's members... The MC is the hired help...

An HOA is funded by the membership and the money is then used by a few board members to fund their violations letters and pet projects with little to no input from the hardworking homeowners is probably how most "Defund the HOA groups see it". And unfortunately they are typically right.

It is no wonder people want to defund a board that does not take surveys and do what the community wants.

The MC is just the hired help.

I would like to hear Kerry's take if her current Board, without the help of their onsite GM and onsite AGM, could they run their HOA.

I often wonder if YOU really know how an HOA works.
