I'm dealing with a situation and need some guidance.

HOA fining me for political sign. I've been dealing with this for about 13 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been renting for 3 years. My monthly rent is $3,577. I have a written lease.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?

I've dealt with this before.

I ended up hiring an attorney to send the initial letter, which cost about $2-4 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's consumer protection office? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
