    That makes no sense. HOAs have no say over home interior, only exterior property and maintenance.

    I hope your colleague took them to court over this.

      Many things are accomplished extrajudicially when it comes to HOAs. They’ll make threats, hire lawyers, etc, and generally make the case its worth the time and/or money being compliant, even if they don’t have any basis. They know, that’s not the point.

        This lines up with the HOAs I’ve had to endure. I made it a hard requirement to find a house without one when I was looking. It definitely made it more difficult, but I am so glad i did.
