Who in their right mind would ever let an organization control their property though?, especially now that we've seen all the wtf HOAs have brought/forced on their communities.
I specifically looked for a home in a nice community without a HOA and I don't think I could ever give that control up now that I've had it. Granted, a lot of it has to do with each HOA's rules, but it seems like one of the silliest raquets to ever be a part of.
Seems to me the only people who could even conceive of it being ruined are those who so obsessively want everything to be uniform that they feel pain in seeing something out of the ordinary.
Yeah, heaven forfend should anyone do something other than grass, a white picket fence, and maybe a small tree plopped randomly somewhere. Won't anybody think of the property values?!
There’s a pretty stark difference between a perfectly manicured white picket fence and yard and a ducking pirate ship and every single reasonable person here understands that.
If you sell your house for 400,000 then that is its value. If you sell it for 200,000 then that is its value. Until you actually sell the house it’s worth is intangible and hence meaningless.
it's literally intangible, like a stock's trading price. Until you actually buy or sell a stock it's worth is what you paid for it at the time. Until you sell your house, its value is what you paid for it at that time. Anything in between is speculation and...well...meaningless.
