@Peter Hightower , you, as the owner, are responsible for the HOA fees. 

Part of the college education is how to get along with people who are different from you, have different values and lifestyles, work under pressure and deadlines, be responsible to show up, do the work, turn it in on time, personal responsibility. 

Great response.

Thanks for responses in advance.

It's worked well for me and I've found sellers are much more responsive when you are under contract than when you are just a lowball offer on a piece of paper.

I’ve been reading the forum and the responses and I have to say, you guys are very knowledgeable and very helpful.
