to those who have been asking about my legal troubles as of late here is summarized explanation. I own (no mortgage) a condo in here in Dallas and just received a letter from a lawyer saying Im sorry your home is being foreclosed - we can help (also stated the house was due to be auctioned on Dec 1st). Thought at first it was just an advertisement, however looking into this I found on the county clerks website noticed there is a brand new shiny lien fee. I never received any sort of Lien notice or anything. The president of the HOA (who also owns the management company) is very unpleasant, and wont attend the HOA meetings because it is a waste of his time. There are charges being placed against me for things like property damage - $500 (unwarranted and not proven), having a hot tub in our back yard - $75/month (although there is no guideline stating it isnt allowed or that there is a fee attached with having one), and $75/month for dog poop removal (i have dogs, but I pick up after them). He has also charged close to $500/month in late fees the past 2 months. He also wont supply any financial information in regards to the HOA fund that we pay into every month, and no improvements have been made in the last year that he has been president except re-siding the unit he owns personally (actually it was completely renovated). He is very abrasive and jumps to using foul language and gets extremely defensive in any conversation. He has completely ignored the other members of the board thus far on votes to move or dismiss guidelines, projects, and how to handle obtaining HOA fee back payments (the HOA president before him was pocketing the HOA fees so most homeowners stopped paying until he was elected out and are slowly paying them off - including my me). I (and the other homeowners) asked the secretary to send out certified letters to everyone to come to an official meeting to dismiss our HOA president and put in place a new one. The board members however have essentially given up and are washing their hands with any matters involving the homeowners and property concerns. I just got a lawyer involved,but that has cost me a $3000 retainer fee plus $750 a month and other unknown fees. The court wants me to put down a bond for $4500. Im at my wits end and dont know what to do at this point.
