CMV: HOA's are a bad thing.

I believe HOA is have too much power. It's almost like politics. Some will tell you that you can't park your truck in your driveway While others will say you can't hang a flag in front of your house. If I have a boat, I should be able to park it in the driveway. And I'm assuming their fees can go up every year. I've talked to a lot of people and they all had horror stories about HOA's. People I've talked to regret joining an HOA.... I'm just looking to know what your thoughts are and some of your experiences...........

HOAs can be a bad thing.  

But both of your neighbors letting their houses go to shit and thus devaluing your own house is also a bad thing. Your house suddenly doesn't look so appealing when the person next to you has a car parked in their front lawn and the grass has started to overtake it. 

HOAs can be an agreement for everyone in the community to say "Just be cool".
