Most of the time the restrictions are put in place to maintain the integrity of the neighborhood. The residence of the HOA pay a monthly due to be part of the association, but it usually also includes landscape maintenance and snow removal. Often residence in an HOA community has what is called; “Condo Status”, this means that they may pay fewer taxes than residence outside of the HOA neighborhood.
