Oh were to begin.....our HOA is terrible. Do we all agree?
We have lived in TH One since 6 months after they were built. HOA fees have increased every year.
Why? What are we getting for our money?
Fiscal irresponsibility and a complete lack of accountability, that is what we are getting.
Exterior maintenance is non-existant. The housing bust is killing our home values and the lack of maintenance is making it worse.
I got home about 7 tonight (Friday 12/16) and there was a snow removal crew going through the block. WTF? We got a very light dusting last night, certainly not enough to shovel. When I asked the crew supervisor why they were shoveling, he said the maintenance manager (Michael) called and told him to.
He told me he also wondered why they wanted a crew out with so little snow, but he did as he was told.
This is a gross waste of our money. The crew went door to door basically scraping bare concrete!
I shot emails to the CCMC staff expressing my concerns. The email to our community manager bounced back because she is out of the office until Jan 3.
Nice to be her!
Guys, I apologize for rambling on, but I just don't think our HOA is looking out for our interests.
Please, let's keep this thread going and if anyone knows who represents us on the HOA please let them know what you think.
Just one more thought...I realized the other day that my HOA bill is (except for my mortgage payment) the largest monthly expenses we have. More even than we pay for gasoline, and more than all of our utilities combined!
Thanks for listening.
