HOA plus calling a priest to have the house blessed certainly point in that direction though. But I don’t think that would be legal everywhere even there. Isn’t much use to you though if the neighbour is the kind of psycho to shoot someone over this.
I imagine all neighborhoods have some local association that fills this function. It’s just that the USA cosplays as libertarians while being authotitarians.
I hate to drag in Iran into this, but that’s a country where property is respected. You owned a piece of land in the 60s that you never developed, then the revolution came and you fled to LA? Well your plot of land is still sitting there, untouched, in the middle of Tehran, now worth tens of millions of dollars.
As a homeowner in Iran, you own a cone with its tip in the Earth’s core and its base emanating to the edge of the universe. The same applies if ypu own an apartment. You have a veto, changes can only happen by consensus.
We have taloyhtiö which is similar. The one I live in at the moment is pretty good, we even have our own janitor which is rare nowadays. Today I called the janitor about a leaking pipe and they arranged a plumber for tomorrow, no hassle.
The housing cooperative is much liked and there are elderly people living here that were born in these houses and never lived elsewhere. It’s not a posh neighbourhood either, which is nice. Just normal people.
But of course it varies a lot. Here most of the people who own the flats live in them, and the board members too, but the housing cooperatives whose boards are filled with landlords tend to minimize the upkeep and services. And when also the tenants change all the time the community that would look after itself doesn’t have a chance to grow.
Check every morning if the cans moved.
Notice they move Wednesday night.
Set alarm for middle of the night (3AM) and check if they moved.
Didn’t move? Next week set alarm for 4.30AM.
Moved? 3.45AM.
Moved…
Shoot the guy trespassing on your property in dark clothes in the middle of the night.
Slightly annoyed by neighbor -> commits premeditated murder.
Yup, perfect solution.
Nowhere does it say they are Americans 🤷♂️ also you sound like a psychopath

Isn’t HOA pretty unique to America (and maybe Canada)?

I live in an andelsboligforening, thats kind of the same i think.
Imagine if an association owned an apartment complex, and the association was owned by the members.
So i dont technically own my apartment, i own a specific part of the association, that is connected with this specific apartment.
We have the same for city gardens called Kolonihave, its actually very common in Northern Europe.
