    nah, HOAs should have legally regulated limits on what they can and cannot do, sweden has HOAs too but basically all they do is pool together money to pay for infrastructure in the neighbourhood.

    like, i for one quite like having paved roads and functional pipes, but i guess you do you.

      Do non HOA homes not have paved roads and working pipes?

        There are no such areas, i’m not sure how you envision common infrastructure being maintained without an organization owning it?

        Or do you just envision the municipality being in charge of maintaining your street’s piping? Have fun waiting half a year for them to get to it when it breaks.

          That’s how my neighborhood works.

          They’re usually there within an hour if that happens.
