When your dream home comes with a nightmare HOA.

They say homeownership is the American dream — but no one warned me that the nightmare would come wrapped in the form of my HOA.

I created Home Sweet Headache because I was tired of the silence. Tired of the fines. Tired of the threats. Tired of feeling like a prisoner in a house I worked hard to afford — all because of a group of people who were never elected properly and who now operate without oversight or accountability.

Why This Blog Exists

My story started with a simple question about the HOA budget — a reasonable request. Instead of answers, I got resistance, retaliation, and a front-row seat to how power corrupts even the smallest of kingdoms.

But this isn’t just about me. It’s about all of us:

• Homeowners who are gaslit, ignored, and overcharged

• Families afraid to speak up

• Residents buried under red tape and unexplained fines

• People punished for asking questions
