My daughter lives in a house and they have homeowners fees etc. They can hardly turn around in their house without the committee telling them no you can't do this or you can't do that.
Obviously there are some people who don't have a life and all they have to do is watch and see if they can catch sombody doing something wrong according to the association. I feel so sorry for you living under those conditions, when you buy a home whether its a condo or a house, you should be able to have animals without someone looking over your shoulder like "Big Brother" all the time.
