Well, I have a HOA, although I'm in a townhome (small terrace, for you Brits), where it sorta makes sense. Regardless, I pay a lot of money in order for them to do a lousy job keeping up our lawn and prevent me from personalizing my house. I suppose it wouldn't be so bad if the colors of the houses weren't all based on various shades of baby shit.

That does sound pretty crappy. I will say that our HOA does an impeccable job at keeping up the grounds. Everything is perfectly clean, and the landscaping is in top shape. The numerous common areas are also kept extremely well, including the 24-hour gym, the swimming pool, half-basketball court, game room (pool, poker, foosball), cinema room, golf simulator, business center, and common room.

I don't have many complaints about the community, it's just that we hit this little snag.
