Description
Can any real estate attorneys help me with HOA counterclaim/foreclosure or get retainer? I can reciprocate by health advice or estate sale items. I can send the fund me. Property manager Stacia Searcy or old name Scofero is the most sadist person I know. It seems she did all this due to what she thought were outdated forms which she refused to forward. Her conduct at the board meeting was beneath anything, she attacked me personally in front of all yelled as loud that could be heard throughout the neighborhood. I always wondered who would like a job like that but turns out some enjoy abusing people and if not, rarely answering any of my few questions. Now she issued an estoppel letter of 32k which prevents another sale and wants to foreclose on my house. I thought even though it’s wrong I will sacrifice my family’s life and move- Now trying to close sales: HOA estoppel fee 250 when usually it’s 50 it is unclear how hoa arrive w 3k fees, 480 costs, and 1000 fine at the 7k difference? Didn’t even make mathematical sense. Also, hoa added assessment so they can foreclose my house. Since I’ve always paid dues if it was done the right way, they couldn’t otherwise. Curiously, nobody else got this assessment and I doubt it’s legal due to it. Also, they slammed me with another roof scrubbing when I was supposed to close sale in 2 weeks! And, when I talked to a new board member (of course, a man!) his roof had never been scrubbed in 11 years when I got 2 notices in 7 years. This is how a hard- working single mom is treated. It’s a clear witchhunt.I spent last 3 years every 2 weeks filing or in hearings! And got chronically sick. And have subsequent judgment from aother woman who backed out of buying my house. Not only did court give her all deposit, she has her attorney fees jmt on my house! And she bought down the street so cant have been the house or neighborhood! Details about this ridiculous crazy HOA judgment about a light: Mine is the only house that is fined due to newer board. And the only process I got was a lawyer letter about a hazardous light, no ARC meeting or arbitration like the normal process used to be. And I was given 14 d to buy Marissa light, at only ONE store, which is one third of the time it takes them to custom order this outdated thing, let alone finding a handyman, noone messes with 90s electronics any more. Other non-Marissa lights and floodlights have been approved by prior boards. And it was spelt wrong in bylaws so I couldn’t find it. My ARC request was not forwarded(see evidence at mtg), and I do have a Savannah light post on my lot- since then, after being attacked personally at the meeting, someone has ripped out my floodlight the same day! Exposing wiring to any dogs etc.(see evidence at mtg Police) I must admit, after neighbors trespassed and turned my light into my bedroom every 5am for 2 months, and put rice into my mail so ants came into my house for 3yrs, that is a new low. I have not been given any process, not even any notification that I was non-compliant (another violation)!(see evidence at mtg Hill Law) By coincidence, I discover, 10 d after board meeting when lighting issues were discussed but not even minutes were ready to be viewed, it is obvious this is a personal battle, and rules are not followed. I have proof from communications that Patti tried to change my functioning email.(see evidence at mtg from Dente) and this maybe why I didnt get the new guide. But interestingly, I am getting fined for having "no light". I had asked the property manager when I heard people complained if I should put it down while my handyman was there, needed to know soon and the answer was "nobody said you can't have a light, in fact, you should have a light" (see evidence at mtg). Therefore, I was under the impression I was allowed to leave the light installed. In emails after, multiple times I asked about meetings about my ARC- no reply, I was under the impression it would be heard. Or there would be an arbitration (see evidence at mtg) I had asked who were the 5 who signed my neighbors' petition to make sure the fining committee was neutral, but was denied an answer 3 times. It wasn't told they asked to be anonymous. Another violation.(see evidence at mtg) I thought the fining committee was publicly to be voted on next meeting, but since patti said fine of $100/d starts the day of board of director meeting feb 5, I guess that committee voted themselves into the fining c.- it seems only board members do the fining in this new way (I dont call it process since it doesn't follow rules) Since I had no process, trial and rules were violated the judgment doesn’t seem fair. When I pointed out my ARC light request never got forwarded to the committee and all of a sudden I see my house being fined, Patty.Fleming, President told me I was the only person in this community that is contentious and she threatened me with her lawyer. Anyway, a long list of lights was mentioned that are also non-compliant. This negative living atmosphere would continue if no point is being made by the fining committee that the rules are outdated. IT HAS BEEN A FREQUENT POINT OF CONTEMPT because it used to be the association's property, therefore being maintained by HOA and being strictly ruled to be be one 90s style for $500 only- well, storms and decades wear them down, and things need to get updated. If it's our property now, there should be more options, too, since we are the ones maintaining it. Also, I allow another Savannah's lantern already on my lot so I follow the light rule… I do have a counter claim of at least 16k for HOA negligence about trees etc which caused roof leak etc, and I will also sue Savannah for misappropriation of funds, i.e. NOT suing for 5 figures of dues not collected from one neighbor, which would have been a lot easier and less costly to us all. This nor my suit was also NOT disclosed to us, and caused all to pay higher dues. And HOA should be liable PERSONALLY for this for abusing their fiduciary duty.
