My brother and I had to hire an attorney to fight for our share of the estate.

Its important to have a smart realtor that can help you through the process and fight on your behalf.

I just had to fight tooth and nail to close a VA condo purchase for a client with a POA that was actually fairly well run, relatively speaking.

By collapsing a segment of regional lenders, it becomes a consolidating event, because you the "evil genius's" of it all get to swop in wearing a hero's disguise, claim the victors conquest/rewards while staking you "must do it for the common good" and the sheeple applaud your consolidation vs fight it. 

And your Realtor would know more about what’s typical with new construction in your State, but I feel they should be fighting for your interests, and be the one having the conversation with the sales rep about a reasonable amount for the earnest money deposit, on your behalf.Glad you haven’t signed anything yet and hope you manage to come to terms that work for you.Keep us posted!

I'm all for seeing others get away from the rat race and have the grit to fight and create their own success story.

Good luck fighting this....you'll need it.

Among many other reasons, I can think of at least three times someone tried to fight me, leaving a gas station or a restaurant there.

Personally, I wouldn't spend money on an attorney because 1) I think the covenants/restrictions can sensibly be used against STRs and 2) because the HOA potentially has deep pockets if the officers decide to fight because they can pass the cost of the fight to the home owners.I would reach out to the officers to get their sentiments and to plead my case, and I would start building my case with the other homeowners. 

If they're fighting, that isn't your problem.Showings:Because properties are occupied, we've moved to only showing a property to someone with an approved application.
