Can you please do a story on how to handle bad HOAs. I'm sure I'm not the only homeowner that is helpless against a compromised Board of Directors with a bad management company. I'm a elderly man that owns a unit in San Diego for ten years. I initially occupied my unit for two years then rented it out for six years. I moved back in approximately two years ago. My complex is located in Oak Park. My complex looks like it belongs on the cover of Better Ghettos and Garbage. It is 50% owner occupied. The CCRs are hardly being enforced. I have sent probably around hundred emails to our management company over two years. It's a miracle when I achieve any success. I have been bullied and not been allowed to speak during monthly HOA meetings, my emails have been ignored, and I have been degraded by our management company. This is a violation of Sterling Act. I have included the Board of Directors recently in my communications. The president has informed me that he is not willing to change our Management company because it will affect our relationship with our lawyer. I cannot afford a lawyer as the cost is prohibitive. My complex is a unsafe, insane and unsanitary place to live. It's extremely stressful to live in my complex. I will be happy to meet with you (socially distant and masked). I'm vaccinated but am extra careful due to my age and health. One phone call or email to the president of our Board will change our complex for the betterment. Thank you, Kiran Kapadia [protected]
