HOAs:

 We live in a small HOA that only has 17 members. When we moved here we were told that it was a neighbor friendly HOA and that each person looked out for one another. 

Well it appears that is not the case. The true colors of a member came forth when the association got a letter from his attorney threatening to sue the association over the roads that the HOA maintains. It is alleged that the roads are causing rain to run into his foundation. 

The board has not been allowed to see what the neighbor is claiming and he went straight to an attorned. The roads have not changed in many years and he claims it started eroding his foundation when hurricane  Helene went through the area. We had some erosion but we fixed it ourselves.  

Instead of taking measures to fix it himself he has let it go and wants his neighbors to do it. Had he come to the board of directors to discuss it people would have likely helped him but instead he went to a lawyer and it is doubtful that anyone would help him now since he has threatened a lawsuit.  

This is a crazy world we live in and so much for a neighborhood that looks out for each other and helps one another.  

Since a lawsuit will impact each of us members I won't say what I think of this guy and his actions. I can't talk to him now as to do so I would have to go through his lawyer about one hour away. The old saying it only takes one bad apple to ruin the entire barrel is pretty much true.
