hi my name is Christina small horn your
[17]
real estate Whisperer for Ascension
[18]
Parish and last week I received an email
[20]
from a former client of mine she had
[22]
seen my videos that I had done in the
[24]
past about the HOA and fireworks if
[26]
you'd like to see that video it's right
[28]
here in the HOA in the American flag
[30]
I'll link that one too and she asked if
[33]
I could please highlight the differences
[35]
between your HOA and management company
[37]
a lot of neighborhoods are set up in a
[39]
way that you have a management company
[41]
and the HOA so I'm going to tell you
[43]
what the difference is between the two
[45]
are you know damn well I could go ahead
[47]
and paint my house any color I want to
[49]
they're not gonna tell me what to do
[50]
well it's your house honey you could do
[52]
whatever you want who cares what the HOA
[54]
or that management company says right
[56]
girl any kind of exterior work that's
[58]
done on the outside of your home always
[60]
needs to be approved by your HOA or your
[62]
management company please verify that
[64]
you are going to be doing the correct
[66]
kinds of improvements to your home that
[68]
will be accepted to the HOA nothing is
[70]
worse than putting in a new deck and
[72]
then finding out it doesn't meet the
[73]
requirements so always get approval
[75]
first well you know that there are board
[78]
members so they're never held to the
[79]
same kind of rules we are you're right
[81]
Peggy eating those girls can get
[82]
whatever they want preserve the board
[84]
don't think that the actual people that
[85]
are on the board get special treatment
[87]
they maybe listen to a little bit more
[89]
but that doesn't mean that they have to
[91]
follow different rules and everybody
[92]
else in the neighborhood just like
[94]
everybody else they have to follow the
[96]
rules I just don't understand why the
[98]
members of the HOA are so hell-bent
[100]
about not getting our roads fixed in
[102]
this neighborhood they're just terrible
[104]
when it comes to roadwork in a
[105]
subdivision our parish is here which our
[108]
county is in the rest of the United
[109]
States have to still be approved by the
[111]
parish themselves we can't just decide
[113]
that we're gonna repair any kinds of
[115]
roads until we get that a parish
[116]
approval well I'm not one to gossip but
[119]
I have to tell you I know they're
[121]
they're getting a little bit kickback
[123]
over there from our association dues
[125]
the only payment they're accepting under
[127]
the table either I mean they are taking
[131]
our money common misconception between
[134]
people on the board and the homeowners
[136]
is that they get paid or they get some
[138]
kind of money from the board itself the
[141]
management company and the reason why
[142]
it's set in place is so that any kind of
[144]
funds that are removed from it can be
[146]
verified the board actually has to
[147]
provide receipts and documentation of
[150]
any kind of funds for any kind of
[151]
repairs that are done to the properties
[154]
around the area well Alexis I wish
[156]
someone would explain to me why we have
[158]
a management company anyways if we have
[160]
an HOA what's the difference it was like
[162]
Hitler Stalin staying in bed together it
[164]
makes no sense these people are crazy a
[167]
lot of people believe you do not need a
[168]
management company when you have an
[170]
established HOA many neighborhoods
[172]
choose to have a management company to
[174]
not create bad blood between neighbors
[176]
that any kind of repairs that need to be
[178]
done in the neighborhood has to have
[179]
some kind of intervention that allows
[182]
for the home owners to have equal
[183]
standing so that's why a lot of the
[185]
homeowners decide to go ahead and get
[187]
the management company to run the HOA
[189]
sunny you could do whatever you want who
[191]
cares what the HOA or that management
[192]
company says I think my client just
[196]
really wanted everybody to understand
[197]
there is a difference between your HOA
[199]
and management company your HOA is just
[202]
a conduit between you and the management
[204]
company so everybody's best interests
[206]
are put in place I hope you found this
