LEX 18 Investigates: Council Member Challenging HOA Foreclosure Laws | LEX18.com | Lexington, Kentucky

LEX 18 Investigates: Council Member Challenging HOA Foreclosure Laws | LEX18.com | Lexington, Kentucky: Ingrid Boak lost her house, but says she was never personally served with any papers. No one knocked on her door and no one called, she says.

The homeowners association lawyers sent plenty of letters and they all went unanswered.

"I believe that if a house can be sold without me personally getting something in my hand or sign something, it is almost like communism," Boak said.

She knows a thing or two about communism. Communists took her east German childhood home after World War II. The same feelings she had as child, have been resurrected as an adult.
-----------
This is a familiar story. Foreclosed unit owner claims no notice of assessment delinquencies. HOA counters its letters were ignored, so pack up your stuff and get out. Hopefully there are provisions in Kentucky law that can provide an equitable outcome.

Another home owned outright that the "HOA" (i.e. the vendors) select for dispossession. The analogies to the Nazis and communists of WWII are apt. Will it take WWIII to quash the Nazis and communists again for a few decades?
