Strange they call it an HOA when it sounds like the basic concept of “home ownership” doesn’t actually exist.

First thing I did when I bought a house was smash a nail in the wall and hang a picture. Well I guess the second, I ripped down walls and painted first.




I don't know if I'm translating to English correctly. I mean, technically it does not have an English translation, since the construct does not exist in countries where English is a native language.

The direct translation would be "house company", but that sounds wrong.


If I'm understanding properly, this would be called a "coop" in NYC. I don't think any other cities in the US have them in significant number.
