Airbnb rental under attack, what to do?

Question

Hell all fellow investors.

I've owned my personal property for years and have been house hacking it for approximately 3yrs through personal renting out per bedroom or through airbnb (house hacking.  Both my neighbors (left, right, and the one in front) are aware of this and perfectly okay with it as long as my quest/room mates didn't don't park on their property.  I've Recently completly moved out of the property and now got a notice through the Home association about the number of vehicles parked in front of my home and associating quest rules.  What to do and how should I proceed foward?

It's a tricky situation. My guest on only told to park on the parking pad or mailbox. I believe the neighbor is complaining since a quest car might be on the edge of his drive way.

The article violations are:

-No part of any line shall be used for the purpose of than single-family dwelling in duplex Villas and uses accessories there to. The term Single filing joint in Duplex Village shamis building occupied as a residence.

- no life should be used directly or indirectly for purposes of any character or for any purpose other than than an exclusive private residence for one family without the consent of the board of directors. Any lot owner man gauge and of the following business within the residence medicine log counting engineering computer cell's General cell's merchandising

- if in fact you are leasing less than the entire home to a people who are not a single family unit with the term less than a month to month you in violation of restriction of HOA.

However, I thought that I have two longterm quest with mailing addresses there which would prove something.

Does the HOA prevent you from using the property as a rental or from having multiple tenants inside that are not related? If that is the case, you have a big battle ahead of you and it seems like one you might not win. If the HOA does not expressly prohibit renting the property or from having a bunch of people staying in the property, you just need to figure out a solution for the parking that doesn't annoy the HOA and the neighbors.
