I think what happens is that people lose money on these and don't even know, until it's too late...I know a plumber who had a laundry mat, and had to declare bankruptcy over it  - a plumber - he did all of his own maintenance, and still couldn't get it to work.Additionally, while both of these seem like they would be hands off automated systems, they are not.

I bought a probate through the MLS and made the offer through our Realtor, and then we had to go to court.

That does not mean that there is an "HOA", or "Home Owner's Association", but there will be a Declaration of Condominium on file, as well as monthly assessments.

Doing it yourself is a couple hundred dollars but you won't know if you did it correctly until it gets tested in court, at which point it will be too late.
