You may be my last contact for help. Thank you for taking time to read my plea. |
|
|
Shortly after I moved in, I met with the DirectTV installer where we discussed placement of the Satellite |
|
|
Dish. Never having lived in a Condominium Development before, I was not certain what to do so I |
|
|
phoned the management office to seek advice. Fortunately the then HOA Office Manager, Kirt was |
|
|
available and walked over to my unit to offer advice. The questionable location was a structural column |
|
|
which sits on my patio. Because the column was within the confines of my patio, I was granted permission |
|
|
to have installed said Satellite Dish. That was then . |
|
|
|
|
|
A year later, 11/29/07, I received a notice stating, "Satellite dish was installed without prior approval from |
|
|
the HOA. Please submit an architectural request form." Also noted, correct the violation by 12/13/07. |
|
|
On 12/05/07, I personally spoke to Nicole, the now HOA Office Manager. I made mention that I did |
|
|
receive permission by the then HOA Office Manager and her response to me was, he is no longer here. I |
|
|
began to tear apart my condo in search for the letter from the then HOA manager granting me permission. |
|
|
To my amazement, I found it. I scanned a copy and emailed it to Ms. R. She responded stating that |
|
|
the text was not that of R & G, the then HOA Management Company. I was furious. What was she |
|
|
insinuating? I went to the office in search of Ms. R to find out exactly what she meant. After several |
|
|
failed attempts, as she is rarely in the office, I once again emailed her asking to be specific as to what she |
|
|
meant. She returned an email stating "The letter appears to be altered, I would have to see the original |
|
|
R & G letter head and Kirt's original signature. |

Thanks for your work on Homeowner Associations. This HOA spent 1 Million in legal fees in a 2 ½ year |
|
|
period so they have deep pockets. The Board filed liens and foreclosed lot owners for unpaid dues. They |
|
|
have ruined so many lives! I have obtained a copy of the legal opinion from the Association attorney |
|
|
telling the Board that there was no collection authority in the deeds. I have copies of email exchanges |
|
|
between board members discussing the problem in the deeds and to seek pursue collection regardless. |
|
|
Unfortunately the local courts are not interested in HOA matters and it’s difficult to fight the HOA. |
