"We have a pretty good HOA here, but there's no way they can keep out undesirables. We have about 1,100 houses in this development and a lot of them are rental properties. Take for instance the neighbor (and I use that term loosely) whose house and property look like a war was fought in it. He has more junk (cars and other crap) in the drive, front yard and back yard, and in the garage, that it looks like a scrap yard opened for business. All the HOA can do is send letters to the property owner, but that's it, it's then up to the property owner to make things right. Obviously, in my case, the neighboring property owner is only concerned about one thing... his rent being paid on a timely basis."

I wonder how detailed the HOA regs there really are? Has anyone really pushed the junkyard filth violators? All over the news lately are stories of how continuous HOA violations are now being met met with liens on their properties in order to force foreclosures to eliminate violators and take their property.
