Must be some very expensive paint if that’s the case. A whole neighborhood paying $20 a month to have a sign painted once a year? I realize you were speaking in hyperbole. The math of, let’s say 50 homes paying $20 a month each: 50 * 20 * 12. Twelve thousand dollars a year is quite a bit of money for an HOA to manage.

That sounds like nothing to me. Are you aware how expensive doing anything is today? That’s probably not enough to maintain a neighborhood pool.

  Pools certainly do not cost that much.

    there is cost and there is “cost”. most money go into labor and actually getting someone to get out there. they need to be bonded and insured. they also need to get the job done. it’s a hassle

lol. you have the board (which is a bunch of volunteers with a lot of time on their hands) and you usually have a management company that implements all the batshit insane rules the “volunteers” make up. Now I ask you: how much would you pay someone to actually write up “violations” and get people to follow the rules? the reality is that these management companies usually do more than 1 hoa (a lot more) and are usually done for profit. at the end of the day, if the sign is painted every year on a 20$/month hoa, I call it a great success.
