Sometimes the only way to beat an HOA is to become a board member

It really just comes down to whether you are pro-purple house or not…

Bad neighbors will go to great lengths to make your life difficult.

Apparently, this entitled neighbor has never heard of the teachings of Sir Isaac Newton…

There are few first-world problems that will drive you as intensely mad as low water pressure. For those of us longing for a hot shower after a long day, there's nothing worse than stepping into the steam-filled room and being met with the pitiful trickle of water that isn't even sufficiently powered to blast the shampoo out of your hair. You've probably encountered this at accommodation while traveling. There's nothing like splashing out for a BnB or hotel suite only to realize that the shower…

Karens can be moms too…

This homeowner has found themself in an infuriating predicament. They're being bothered by an HOA . Not their HOA. Just an HOA that keeps sticking its nose in this homeowner's business! There are a lot of people who feel that HOA-run neighborhoods are a complete no-go for them. When buying a home, they won't even consider living in a neighborhood that's run by the organization. Homeowner's Associations have gained a reputation for being money-hungry busybodies. Maybe you're thinking that that's…

Why pay nothing to do whatever you want with your property when you can pay $70 a month to be told what you can and cannot do with your property?

It's always the little things that will end up biting you in the…

You never think the worst case scenario could happen to you, until it does…

Isn't it great when karma gives you a front seat?

When you purchase a property, do you intend to follow all the unwritten rules that other neighbors feel “grandfathered” into? What if those rules get your car dinged up or your dog loose? The entitlement to your own private property can be intimidating. And if your good old-fashioned neighborly intimidation tactics don't work, then some extremely entitled neighbors might take it too far. Perhaps even going against the law.

Everyone knows not to upset a pregnant woman. Even if you don't know, you should be able to deduce from the state that woman is in that you need to be extra careful around her. It's a common thing in many species, not just humans, that a pregnant mama-to-be will mess you up if you cross her. A very real example is this Reddit story . This mom-to-be was pregnant in the height of heat during the summer days. She had a designated parking spot in front of her townhouse so she wouldn't have to walk…

There are ups and downs to having a neighbor, especially one you share a fence with. Some ups are that they could be really cool and become your friend. Or they are just thoughtful and help maintain the shared area. Plus, it's just nice to know there is a person near by in case of emergencies. The downs are now you have to get along with a stranger. So what if you two don't click ? What if they turn out to be en entitled Karen? Or worse, what if they disrespect your land and those residing on i…

The housing market is insane right now, that's pretty common knowledge at this point. But have you dived into the property insurance crisis? (Feels like everything is in crisis mode these days…) Turns out it's not just the price to purchase a house that has been disgustingly inflated, but also the price to keep and maintain your home. I mean, with the price of gas and eggs these days, are you even surprised that something as money hungry as insurance companies have raised their prices? One tena…

If you're going to do some shady work, then you should at the very least do some research on your victims. Like, that's villainy 101. You can't scam a scam artist, ya know? You're already getting chased by karma, you shouldn't give it any reason to catch up. But, oh boy, when karma does catch up is it satisfying! This kind of justice got epically served recently by a guest who almost got scammed by the host of a condo he booked for a long weekend. According to this reddit post , he and his frie…
