Some Background on HOAs (HomeOwnerAssociations)......
"Covenant Enforcement"..........
Social Manipulation, Control, Harassment, and Fee Generation by HOAs and the People Who Brought Them To Us. Copyright 2008 by Koreen Kruger
When you consider that powerful, influential, S.I.G.s (Special Interest Groups) comprised of the U.L.I. (Urban Land Institute), the N.A.R. (National Association of Realtors), the C.A.I. (Community Association Institute), and the N.A.H.B. (National Association of Home Builders) and others, brought the concept of Homeowners Associations into concrete reality, it is not surprising that HOAs are structured to enforce social-psychological methods of persuasion and apply group conformity pressures in artificial cultural constructs.
"Covenant Enforcement" sounds very Biblical and religious in it's implications. In one "letter of violations" a Florida "LCAM" states: "Our job is Covenant Enforcement!" Too bad all legitimate laws are not enforced with such conviction. There is already enough social and religious persecution without "covenant enforcement" harassment and malicious prosecution.
HOAs are experiments in social control and manipulation of human behavior primarily to generate income and fees for their perpetrators. Their blatant self-interests are forcing the compliance of "homeowners" subjected to collusive and coercive persuasive harassment reinforced by threats of fines, liens, foreclosures, and loss of their "homes." The HOA boards of "directors and officers" are pawns in this high-powered political legal game. The more stupid, greedy, and controlling the "board members" are the better the industry "overseers" like it - hence the "classes" that are taught at their "institutes." No doubt the BoDs are thrown a few bones now and then at the expense of the other "homeowners." The more one studies the methods of these "professionals" the more insidious these HOA schemes are revealed to be!
We seriously need to stop this cancer that "runs with the land" before it really gets out of control and there are NO "property rights" left anywhere - only CIDs, CDDs. POAs, and PUDs with HOA BoDs, CAMs, LCAMs, PCAMs, the CAI lawyers and judges, ULI developers, NAHB builders, and NAR Realtors! Will this Nightmare ever end?
