HOA requires Landlords only to pay for Professional Landscaping

[Robert Steele]

A friend of mine has a rental in a Texas HOA. They've just adopted a bunch of restrictive declarations aimed squarely at landlords.

I don't have a lot of the details but apparently there is a rental fee charged by the HOA and higher fines for rentals if they violate the CC&Rs.

The one that really gets me riled up is they are requiring landlords to pay for "professional landscaping". This is only required by rentals. Not owner occupiers. Are you kidding me?
