So what you folks are saying is the old "Your millage may vary" and thus my advice to contact a professional, who knows the millage (Laws) in your community applies.
As I said (And the person who said "Why would I want to live in an area like that?" hit the reason for this on the head.
I think the seller should inform.. As some others have said the seller has to tell the buyer that an HOA exists.
I kind of suspect that did not happen in the O/P's case.
Question for the experts: What happens if you buy a house/property and subsequent to the purchase your neighbors form an HOA.
What happens if you live in a house for years, Flying the flag as the O/P has, and suddenly, years later, the HOA shows up when you have not heard of them before and did not even know they existed?
Question: HOW CAN HOA MEMBERSHIP BE MADE MANDATORY..
I would not purchase property if it came with a mandatory HOA.
At least in Illinios, you cannot form an Hoa after the fact and subject prior owners.
Our Hoa was sued over this, and lost.
