Responses:

Looking into it, bills increased by an average of $150 per *year*. - Reagen Apr 6, 10:12 6
- Our HOA had people cry poverty over an increase from 120 to 240 a year. People are ridiculous. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 6, 10:38 5
  - Meanwhile, when I look at condos in Chicago, some of the "cheap" ones are like $800 a month. -- nm - David Apr 6, 11:19 4
    - Of those I manage here I think the *highest* is just short of that. -- nm - Spawn Apr 6, 11:29 1
      - We've seen $500k condos with $6,000 monthly HOA fees. I'm like, "You might as well shop in the $1M range with a cheap HOA." Might save you money. - David Apr 6, 11:43
    - Yeah. We paid 60 a month for our HOA in Maryland. Saw 120 on Zillow and was like…ehh, okay. Lisa goes…”That’s annual.” “Yes please.” -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 6, 11:26 1
      - I think that's what ours is annually. - Dark Callisto 🦊 Apr 6, 12:55
What do we want? Cheap contaminated water! When do we want it? Now! -- nm - Dano Apr 6, 09:58 2
- If you polled this I firmly believe more people would vote for the cheaper option. -- nm - Tim Apr 6, 10:36
- Behold! I give you clean water! - Loyola Apr 6, 10:07
