We have our first HOA committee meeting tomorrow night via zoom.
Any suggestions on my approach, attitude, to those fuckers? We will be discussing what to do with all the funds collected as well as selecting a treasurer. Not sure I want that gig as I would much rather be the potential sore thumb of the group.
Know your local zoning and HOA limitations. At a previous HOA, a severe HOA violation could cause the house to go into foreclosure.
Humm...
1) Make sure garages can hold at least 1 vehicle and that campers, off road vehicles are behind fences/out of view. Nothing says white trash or ghetto like yards full of cars or abandoned vehicles.
2) All contracts for services are multi-quoted, no nepotism without disclosure
3) All emails to the board auto forward to all board members and the manager. Cuts down in favoritism, fraud.
4) No short term rentals. Resident/car limits, monthly premium or application fee to do a background check on renters (this was massively important near Vegas, renters had to have the check because we were a gated community).
5) Clear party/noise guidelines. Sign off by neighbors, strict time limits unless neighbors approve extended times... In writing.
6) Text alert list. (Especially for crime alerts)
7) Sign up with a tow company in case the need arises.
8 ) Get people to sign off on drone photographs to inspect the properties.
9) Encourage security cameras
10) ACH payments
11) Trash pickup contract for Monday pickups (weekend yard and cleanup work)
12) Be a Nazi. Assholes take the inch, then the mile and fuck up a neighborhood quickly. Zero tolerance!!! Drug busts = foreclosure!
