President - The National Homeowners Advocate Group

Texas – © 2009 - Back in February, I decided to write a personal and informational letter to the President of the United States, Barack Obama.  I sent the following letter because I felt it was time that the homeowner advocate community contacted a President of the United States about our problems with our neighborhood homeowner/property owner associations.   It is time to make it known in Washington by filing an official complaint.

The premise behind the concept of homeowner associations is discussed at length in the book "Villa Appalling! Destroying the Myth of Affordable Community Living" by Vanitzian & Glassman.  The premise is really very simple; the homeowner association' s success depends on the constant replacement of those who can no longer afford to stay and pay.  Any owner depending on their "homeowner association" for "anything" will soon learn that the results inevitably lead to a loss of personal freedom and a diminished quality of life.
