On this week’s Where You Live, airing Saturdays at 10am on AM1280 The Patriot, Gene takes a direct look at the shared responsibilities within homeowners associations. What exactly is an HOA obligated to do—and where do member responsibilities begin?
Gene addresses a common dynamic in HOA communities: residents who frequently complain about policies, dues, or enforcement but rarely attend meetings, vote, or participate in governance. He breaks down why engagement matters and how apathy can directly impact property values and community standards.
At the same time, Gene makes it clear that accountability is not one-sided. When boards fail to meet their fiduciary duties, neglect maintenance obligations, or operate without transparency, homeowners have the right—and responsibility—to demand better.
If you live in an HOA or are considering moving into one, this episode provides a practical, balanced perspective on governance, accountability, and the role every homeowner plays in protecting their investment.
