In 20 years HOAs will be as dead as "seperate but equal".They are a joke, and only the lawyers are laughing.You are paying the full boat in property taxes, but the town or municipality gets'relieved' of providing the services they would be responsible for in 'real' subdivisions.It is an assinine scheme and benefits only the legal 'experts' that profit fromthe disfunction.

I want to sell at least in the next two years to buy a live aboard boat.

Once I quit, which I did quite suddenly, it was do or die as a real estate investor (cuz I didn't have any other options) so kinda like Cortes, I burned the boats and eliminated the option of going back.

Do they have personal property, furniture, car, truck, boat, guns anything of value?

At the age of 13, my brothers and I were earning good money making and mending fishing gear for several boats.

A house is nothing but an expensive doodad, same as a boat or car.

Just need to plan ahead, have the scope of activities laid out and follow the plan.Steven, absolutely, most in RE miss this boat, the tax advantages, grants, subsidies, cooperation from governmental entities, the public relations, legal protection and limited liability.Non-profits are exempt from Dodd-Frank as an example.For profit activities can be conducted to further the mission of a non-profit.The N/P can work with other entities as well, that's to say that for those looking for away around DF, well, being exempt is being in compliance!

My wife and I were originally looking for a smaller house on a couple of acres that will accomadate our boats, campers, and other toys.

Check into clear.comWe're actually in the same boat.

When you're a tenant you don't rock the boat until you have a new place to live and know you are on the way out.
