I have an HOA that I would like to fight; they are trying to restrict me in an overreaching way that is not a part of their policies. I have all of the evidence and I am looking for legal help from someone experienced with HOAs. Does anyone have a recommendation?

The specific distinction is the HOA referring to my rental as a multi-family unit, which it is absolutely not. They're trying to fine me $500, and presumably charge additional fines later. This is not the first time I've been more or less harassed unfairly by the HOA. Back in June they fined me for something that was also not in accordance with their rules, but I did not have the bandwidth to get into a legal battle. Now, I do not want to allow this to continue, so I need legal representation.

Would someone be willing to talk to me about evicting my tenant?

I have a squatter in my property. They've been there without paying rent since August 1 2021. I gave them 3-day vacate notice on Aug 1. I was told by an attorney's paralegal that I needed to give a fresh 30-day vacate notice (1-2 weeks ago). The eviction moratorium has ended and I should be able to follow standard Texas eviction law which should be: 3-day notice to vacate, somehow file an eviction in court, and then get the sheriff to remove them. Should be able to get them out in ~10 days by my understanding. 

Has anyone gone through this? Provide any guidance?

I've been doing real estate for 4 years, and I found an incredible mortgage broker and realtor but I have never found an incredible CPA. I am willing to pay appropriately for a great CPA, if you know anyone who can aggressively help me reduce my taxable income in every legal way. Feel free to message me directly in any way you can to refer.
