JoCo Homebuying: The good and the bad of home associations
A homeowner association (HOA) is typically a nonprofit corporation within a community of housing. Most HOAs exist in planned multi-unit community projects such as condominiums and townhomes or in newer developments filled with new construction. Membership is mandatory and the association is governed by a board of directors made up of elected community residents once control is passed off from the developer. Practically all incorporated HOAs are subjected to state laws in addition to unique governing restrictive covenants and bylaws. These restrictive covenants and bylaws define community standards so as to protect property values. It’s this intention that is the good of HOAs. The bad? That’s mostly in the eye of the beholder.

Look Back at These 12 Lost Missouri Street Corner Sights and See What You Still Remember
Missouri’s lost streetscapes span more than one kind of memory. A former ballpark may still be vivid to someone who attended a game there, while a nineteenth-century hotel survives chiefly through photographs and family stories.
