If the HOA hires you and the ONE owner pays his dues to the HOA, how can you legally not clear his snow also?
| The HOA pays me to clear the road. I cleared the drives out of the goodness of my heart (seat time). |

| Re: Ever use your tractor for revenge? Never taken revenge ~with~ the tractor, but every now and again, when I ~really~ need it, and it's sorry 50-year-old parts don't want to work... I think of taking revenge ~on~ my tractor.

| Re: Ever use your tractor for revenge? Generally, the people that buy into HOAs go in thinking that they will have final say on everybody else when in reality everybody else has final say on them. The only thing they have in common is the opinion that their opinion should count the most. I think those people pretty much deserve each other.
My daughter & SIL are trying to sell a nice condo that has 3 refusals because the co-op improvement fund is empty, no reserves, because a few absentee landloards won't pay their condo fees. Leaves the rest the option of suing each other or paying their own repairs, which it's self requires co-op approval. What a club!!! MikeD74T |

| Re: Ever use your tractor for revenge? Well that makes me a DINK I guess.  Yet, I live on 19 acres and the house is smack in the middle, lake on the front, highway in behind, and nuthin but trees on either side. Its my own HOA, home owners acerage.
On to the revenge thing, if it were me, I'd consider this option;
When the snow flies and the driveways need clearing, when you get to their house, start to drive in, but stop...then back out, and drive on. Do this until they ask what you're doing. Just shrug your shoulders and say "You choose to back out of our agreement. I choose to back out of our agreement."
Easy enough. No?

it's a way for people to be in your business. especially ht efounding or 'first' people in a subdivision.. or deed restricted community.
and don't think being rural prevents it. I own acerage in places that had POA/LOA AND deed restrictions.
