Lessons learned? Challenges?
In an unexplainable way, I enjoy having the HOA fee, but also do not. I find it less work to go and trim the grass, snow removal, etc. It is more hands off than I imagined. However, profits would be bigger if there were no HOA fee and there would be more opportunity to make improvements on the property.
