For finding places with low HOA look at low rise buildings (no elevators) and 2 story townhouses that aren't new construction like townhouses built in the 90's or early 2000's. 

If you get up high enough in elevation you can avoid the 3" sized roaches and termites, so someone told me.

Those areas were hit pretty hard during Sandy, and homes have to be elevated pretty high. 

You are allowed to establish reasonable rules for the animals, such as requiring a current Vet's health report and verification of current vaccines; must be on leash or in carrier on common areas and in stairwells, elevators, or other tight spaces.

Therefore, the minimum elevation need to be above the flood plain.

The forklift went down the rows, elevated the lifts to the proper spot and then went to the staging location to unload. 

Contractors are hard to come by at the moment and all prices are elevated. 

We look into the elevations and other data and compare it to the flood zone. 

We usually do like to have 1-2 high end pieces in every room, as we find that it elevates the feel of the entire space.

In '14 I was elevated to an "AMBASSADOR" which is a title that gives the member more status and recognition as an active, knowledgeable and experienced member/contributor.
