02/28/26  “HOA Challenges and Changing Times”

On this week’s Where You Live, airing Saturdays at 10am on AM1280 The Patriot, Gene takes a direct look at the shared responsibilities within homeowners associations. What exactly is an HOA obligated to do—and where do member responsibilities begin?

Gene addresses a common dynamic in HOA communities: residents who frequently complain about policies, dues, or enforcement but rarely attend meetings, vote, or participate in governance. He breaks down why engagement matters and how apathy can directly impact property values and community standards.

At the same time, Gene makes it clear that accountability is not one-sided. When boards fail to meet their fiduciary duties, neglect maintenance obligations, or operate without transparency, homeowners have the right—and responsibility—to demand better.

If you live in an HOA or are considering moving into one, this episode provides a practical, balanced perspective on governance, accountability, and the role every homeowner plays in protecting their investment.

02/14/26 HOA Accountability: Responsibility Goes Both Ways

This week on Where You Live, airing Saturdays at 10 AM on AM1280 The Patriot, Gene poses a fundamental question to Aaron: What business truly has your best interest at heart? It’s not an easy question—and the conversation explores how trust, incentives, and accountability intersect in everyday consumer relationships.

The discussion then turns to growing complaints within HOA communities, specifically concerns from members whose driveways were not shoveled or salted as required by their association. Gene examines the obligations of HOA boards, the expectations set by governing documents, and what homeowners can do when services paid for through dues are not delivered.

If you live in an HOA—or are considering buying into one—this episode breaks down the practical realities of community management, service accountability, and protecting your interests where you live.
